Subj: RE: [DR-L] Correct Orchestral attire?
Date: Fri, 04 May 2007 15:29:14 -0400

Hello!

At rehearsals, I think that anything that isn't excessively distracting is
fine, unless the conductor specifies otherwise. I'm a T-shirt-and-sweatpants
kind of person. I've never had a problem.

I think the article you quoted is an unusual case. (I hope.)

Subject: [DR-L] Correct Orchestral attire?

Dear List:
I have always want to ask this question about "what is the proper attire to
wear at orchestra rehearsals"but always thought the query a bit
superficial. In light of the increasing number of female musicians in every
orchestra though I believe the query is pertinent to these Lists.Also note
the news item below..
Any feedback is always appreciated.
Rgds,

Rio-Brazil

Rio de Janeiro--Composer of over 400 musical scores for films from "the
MIssion"to Spaghetti Westerns with Clint Eastwood,Oscar winner Ennio
Morricone,has his own manias (idiosyncracies).
Currently in Rio rehearsing the Petrobras Sinfonica for a program of his

works this Saturday evening ,he requested that three musicians in the
orchestra change their clothes.They were all wearing purple,a colour which
Morriconi hates.
