Did you think that just because the first concert of the season is over you can no longer buy season tickets?
Well, think again! You may now purchase partial-season tickets! Get three great concerts for one great price!
You may buy this package for $39 (adult) or $26 (students/seniors 60+). Look for a half-season package after the December concert.

Hodie tickets
Just a reminder that tickets for the "Hodie" concert are available on consignment.
When you sign up for consignment tickets, you will be given an envelope with a standard number of tickets in it. You also have the option to check out more, so don't feel restricted. But please don't take 90 if you know you're only going to sell three--that gives us a false sense of how ticket sales are going.
In the meantime, you should know that we are doing quite well selling tickets for this concert. We've already sold around 300, and we're still several weeks away. Keep up the good work and let's plan for a full house!

Review of Multicultural Concert
We got reviewed in Sunday's Salt Lake Tribune. Link to the entire story here, or keep reading below for a few highlights.
"Brady Allred's efforts to share world music during the Salt Lake Choral Artists' "Multicultural Celebration" at Libby Gardner Hall Saturday night were met with enthusiastic approval.
"The Chamber Choir . . . demonstrated secure vocal technique, clear diction and centered pitch. Allred allowed his singers ample expressive freedom, and the group's shared musical vision gave the performance unity throughout.
"The [Concert Choir] sang five movements from [Fanshawe's] 'African Sanctus' and three selections from 'Pacific Song.' . . . [a] well-honed performance.
"The evening's most appealing selections were a Taiwanese song, 'Diu Diu Dang Ah,' that mimicked the sounds of a train journey and Aboriginal Australian music, 'Past Life Melodies,' that utilized overtone or throat singing to fascinating effect.
"Jane Fjeldsted led the women's chorus in delicate and expressive music . . . Associate conductor Aimee Frederick directed the Concert Choir in lush and detailed music."
Well done, everyone!

SLCA Cookbook
Don't forget to copy down some of your favorite recipes for use in the Salt Lake Choral Artists Cookbook!
Carolyn Bristol and Leslie Anderson, who are spearheading this project, have asked that we either email our recipes to them or take them to a Tuesday night rehearsal. They've been collecting recipes all September and have asked that we have everything turned into them sometime this month.
That means you only have one more Tuesday night rehearsal--September 30--to hand in your recipes! Make sure to do it--this will certainly be a great cookbook with everyone's participation!

Consignment Tickets
As was started last year with Elijah, you can now check out tickets to sell to your family members, friends, co-workers, casual acquaintances, taxi drivers, and enemies.
Should you like to carry around a bundle of tickets, please come to any Tuesday night rehearsal early to speak with Becky Workman. She'll happily sign you out as many or as few tickets as you'd like. All this means is that she has your name and how many tickets you've taken. You do not have to pay for the tickets at this time. You can then sell them, and bring the money and any unsold tickets back to Becky before the concert.
Let me repeat: you do not have to pay for the tickets you take--unless you don't return them. Otherwise, it's free for you, and a great way to sell tickets. Honestly, it's much easier to commit people to come to a concert when you actually have physical tickets they can buy. I've gotten people to come to concerts this way when before they have just said "maybe."
Check out some tickets, and let's sell out the house for our season opener!

Fun concert this weekend
Since we all belong to a great choir, and great choirs should support other great choirs, I thought you all might be interested to know that the University of Utah's choral department has its first concert this weekend. Here's the information:
Choral Showcase
featuring the University Singers, Acappella Choir, and Women's Choir
Saturday, September 20, 7:30
Libby Gardner Concert Hall
Tickets are $7.00 general, $3.00 student and may be purchased at the door or online through kingsburyhall.org. Your best bet, though--and the one that will save you the extra handling fee--is to buy the tickets directly from a choir member. There are several (myself included) in SLCA, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding someone to sell you a ticket.
This concert promises to be fun for everyone. Hope to see you there!
