September: The Return of the Music
September means that two of my favorite activities resume: rehearsals of the San Francisco Bay Area Chamber Choir, and rehearsals of the Castro Valley Community Band. SFBACC resumed last Sunday, and CV Band started last week. (I wasn't able to attend, because I have a standing commitment on the first Wednesday of each month, but I'm looking forward to this evening.)
The choir is singing a number of double-choir pieces, including the Bach motet, Der Geist hilft unsrer Schwacheit auf. I'm not sure what's in the band folder yet, but I've heard one rumor about the group: there are several new saxophone players. Should be exciting.
Concerts for both groups will be in a few months; the choir sings on November 18-19, and the band concert date is yet to be set. When it is, I'll post it here.
