Thacher Music Room, 12-01-2013

Attending: Victor, Dev, Chris, Brad, Rick, Scott
Scribe:  Scott

  • The meeting started without Victor
  • Dev started a circulation, which led into a 10 minute improv
  • Chris led calisthenics.  Had us play the D major scale spanning from the lowest D to the highest, ascending and descending.  We played it very slowly at first, so we were familiar with the tetrachords, then increased the bpm.  Chris noted that we seemed to be having trouble with the last 2 octaves of the scale, and had us loop ascending and descending from the F# on the 2nd string to the highest E.
  • Repertoire started with "Where the Nurse".  Played through it once, then Basses did sectional work.
  • Victor shows up.  More sectional work by both parts
  • Flying Home
  • Chris leaves
  • Break
  • Calliope
  • section work
  • Asturias, which started with improv.
  • Procession chord
  • End of meeting
