Last Tuesday we started the 5th rehearsal of the Hållsta Suite, unbelievable. I feel that we have just started. In order to keep the heads fresh, and because we also have a program to play after the break on the Easter weekend, namely the CD presentation of Treats, we started the rehearsal with arrangements that will be played in that context. Steven Sluiter has arranged a piece, Marco Kerver will also do this for this combination, and hopefully some people from the orchestra. And we have a beautiful original arrangement of The New York Voices, ” On A Clear Day”. The 2nd part of the rehearsal last Tuesday, we spent fully on the first playing of the entire Suite. So from measure 1 to measure 1897 integrally. Naturally, this resulted in the expected problems, particularly with regard to the differences in tempi. That’s why it’s good, from now on every rehearsal to play the entire Suite, so that the band will get used to the different transitions. Difficult? Yes, and so nice and challenging. And that’s what we ultimately do this.
