Re: Dealing with unprepared sectionmates

It seems that being unprepared is NOT part of the community ensemble ethic, and should not be accepted behavior.

When the group has been "preparing" for 3 months, the players should be expected to have their parts down pat.

Perhaps, the more dedicated (and, probably, skilled) players should suggest section rehearsals. Bring all the clarinet players to a rehearsal and woodshed it!

BTW: 3-month preparation periods (12 rehearsals) tend to turn off the more skilled and dedicated participants. There is probably some grumbling about the combination of taking too much time and the casual participants using the rehearsals for practice sessions.
