The Labors of Art

Young Artist Orchestra members know that I mark my scores with Post It Notes. They don't see me at home, however, listening and re-listening to the invaluable recordings made by Stage Manager Andrew Mulkey, ripping out "stickies" from the previous rehearsal and installing new notes for the one coming up. The images below are from one blistering session preparing for a Dvorak Symphony 8 rehearsal. (Daughter Caroline took the pics.) This process and this scene, however, are repeated every single weekend prior to your rehearsal. GAR
