Rehearsing P.I. Tchaikovsky’s Overture Solemnelle “1812” with the violas
My fellow teaching friend, Ellen Douglas, kindly reached out to me asking if I was willing to coach the senior viola section of the annual Seylynn Strings Festival today, where students from all of the high schools in the North Vancouver School Board converged at Windsor Secondary School (where my other teaching friend, Marissa Heaven, teaches) got together and we had this piece running right off the ground as soon as we all got the music.
