The first rehearsal, which took place on Sunday night, was a smashing success! We covered a great deal of repertoire and are all feeling excited for the upcoming concerts. New cellist, Patti, wowed the group with her preparedness and adaptability. If the first rehearsal is any indication of how the concerts will go on September 2nd and September 8th, I think we may safely have very high expectations.
Turns out, The Hollywood Soloists are big fans of Izze's Pomegranate Soda! After our first break, the fridge was completely cleaned out, haha. I will have to stock up before our next rehearsal!

The most challenging repertoire will get a second look tonight while the pieces not yet covered will get a first read through. Tomorrow night we welcome composers into the rehearsal for coaching and suggestions. Check back tomorrow for a new posting that will contain some photos of the group and possibly a video or two of THS at work!
