Ticket Sign Up for Christmas Pops ends tonight!  Ticket Sign Up for Messiah Starts tonight!

Please sign the lists in the hall to reserve your comp. ticket.  You only get a comp. or discount ticket for shows in which you are performing!  Note that we can NOT purchase single comp tickets for the Pops for Saturday night – this is true most years, because most years this show is a sell out!! As usual, if you would like to purchase discount tickets alongside your comp ticket, don’t sign up for a comp ticket here.  Instead, call the box office at its normal number:  713-224-7575.  (Discount tickets may also be purchased separately from the comp ticket, but you are only eligible for the discount for concert series in which you perform.  You may purchase discount tickets for any performance.) 

For Sale Tonight: Christmas CDs!!  Last Chance!!

EVERYONE in the chorus may buy up to 15 CDs at the Artists’ Rate of $10 each.  (Melissa has the list from last time, so she knows how many you have bought already!)  Cash or checks payable to “Houston Symphony”.

WASSAIL!!  Thanks to David Fox and Corita Dubose, and to all the cookie bakers!!

Coming Soon: The Christmas Pops Party!  Once again we will have a festive meal for Christmas Pops singers between our two Sunday concerts.  This year, we’ll hold this in the events room at Birra Porrettis (1 block from Jones Hall).  The menu will include pasta, salad, and a non-alcoholic beverage.  (There will also be a cash bar.  Cost: $16, tax and tip included.  Lois Howell, our great social chair, has organized this (thanks!).  She’ll begin collecting money tonight!!

Get Your Picture Taken Tonight!  If you are new to the Chorus and Ian Fetterley  has not taken a good picture of you (i.e., not your audition picture), please look for him tonight at the break in room 160 (the choral hall).  The pictures on the chorus web page are a great help to all of us in getting to learn names!!
