New Rehearsal Location (except for Dress Rehearsals):

Athey Creek Middle School, 2110 Brandon Pl, West Linn, OR 97068
We’ll be rehearsing in the Band Room at the school. There is an exterior door to the Band Room; look for the Tilikum Chamber Orchestra sign outside the door to use.
Please don’t follow your GPS instructions; there’s a new permanent barrier to the school parking lot (and they’re doing major construction on Willamette Falls Dr. by the roundabout).

DIRECTIONS:
From I-205 you can take either the 10th St exit or the Stafford Rd exit:
~ From 10th St exit follow your GPS to Willamette Falls Dr
~ turn RIGHT onto Willamette Falls Dr
~ your GPS might tell you to turn right into a neighborhood DON’T (you can’t get into the school parking lot from there)
~ STAY on Willamette Falls Dr until the roundabout at Brandon Pl
~ turn RIGHT onto Brandon Pl and then up the hill into the Athey Creek parking lot
~ as you look at the front of the school the band room door is on the far left – Tilikum sign will be there

OR
~ From Stafford Rd exit follow your GPS to Borland Rd
~ turn RIGHT onto Borland Rd until the roundabout at Brandon Pl
~ go around the roundabout to turn LEFT onto Brandon Pl and then up the hill into the Athey Creek parking lot
~ as you look at the front of the school the band room door is on the far left – Tilikum sign will be there

Dress Rehearsal & Concert Location for December 6 & 7 – On the Stage at:
Lakeridge High School, 1235 Overlook Dr, Lake Oswego, OR 97034 (performing arts center is on the left side of school; park in lot and enter through glass doors)

Dress Rehearsal & Concert Location for March 14 & 15 – On the Stage at:
Lake Oswego High School, 2501 Country Club Road, Lake Oswego

Drive into the main driveway and turn right. Turn left at the road behind the main building and continue to the parking lot at the end of the building. Our TCO sign will be next to the exterior glass door just around the corner to the right from the end of the building.

There is also an entrance to this end of the school from Boones Ferry Road. It is a driveway that is not well-marked, but your GPS can probably guide you there.

Most Rehearsals will be at Athey Creek Middle School in West Linn
Please don’t follow your GPS instructions; there’s a new permanent barrier to the school parking lot (and they’re doing major construction on Willamette Falls Dr. by the roundabout). SEE ABOVE FOR DIRECTIONS

Links to Reference Recordings for this concert:

Fanfare
Callirhoe
Symphony No. 5
Notice that the parts to the Dittersdorf are mislabeled. They say Symphony No. 6, but are really No. 5. I confirmed this with Adam. You probably want to point this out to your sections, to avoid confusion.

Write in the following Rehearsal letters that Adam created for the Dittersdorf, since there are none. We’ll probably want to add measure numbers as well, as we’ll be counting them anyway.
Mvt. 1
A : measure 8
B: m. 32 (double bar pick up)
C: m. 53
D: m. 83 ( after the fermata)
Mvt. 2
A: m 9 (tutti forte)
B: m. 21
C: m. 27
D: m. 33 (tutti forte)
E: m. 41 (tutti fortissimo)
F: m. 58
G: m. 79
H: m. 92 (after the fermata)
I: m. 104 (tutti fortissimo)

Mvt. 3
A: m. 9

C: m. 47
D: m. 67 (a tempo)

*Do not take last repeat. All other repeats are good.

The Rehearsal Letters for Movements 4 & 5 were redone, because partial measures were sometimes counted in the first information we received. There are a couple more corrections in the measure numbers for the rehearsal numbers below. They are marked in red.

Mvt. 4:
A: m. 15
B: m. 29
C: m. 55
D: m. 85 (tutti forte)
