Sorry for your loss, Jarred.
I'm back in town now and I do have the debit card, so Tom/Jessica let me
know if y'all need that. I can also help making the copies too.

Dear Jarred,
I am very sorry for your loss. Please take your time with things there and
don't forget to see to your own needs as well.
Jessica (et al),
as far as rehearsal priorities, they are as follows:
Duke, English Folk, Canterbury, Molly if at all possible. We'll figure out
the rest as we go along.
Thank you all.

That sounds good, Tom. We will be flying back to Austin late Wednesday
night, so I'll be available on Thursday to begin copying.

Jarred, you have our condolences.
Thank you for the information we’ll need to move forward. We’ll take care
of it.
My company has a relationship it’s Office Depot that gets us a deep
discount on copy service and works at the self service kiosks. Jessica,
I’ll give you a call later today or tomorrow and we can work out a plan for
the next few days.

One tip I forgot to mention below: for anyone who is making copies of
music, you’ll probably need to reduce the copy ratio for most of it to
*93%*. Most music is printed on 9x12 paper, so it needs to be shrunk down
to fit on letter size.

*Subject:* [acweboard] Music copies
Hi all,
Due to circumstances, I’m not going to be able to make copies of the music
for spring. For those of you who haven’t heard, my father passed away just
before Christmas, so I’m a bit preoccupied. And then when I get back to
town I have to bake a cake for a family wedding. Jessica has kindly offered
to work on the copies for me, but if anyone else has time to help, I’m sure
she would appreciate it. So I’m sending this information to everyone, just
in case.
I’ll leave the music at my house for Jessica to pick up this week while
I’m in Louisiana. I’ll also leave the Fed Ex account card, although when I
tried to use it last week I was told we couldn’t use our account with the
self-service copiers anymore. And since the music we’re copying is
copyrighted, we also can’t use their full-service copying. What I would
suggest is getting the ACWE debit card from *Melissa* and using that so
no one is out of pocket for copies. With a copy of the ACWE tax exemption
form, that should also be sufficient to not have to pay taxes on the
copies. We may be able to finagle the discount we’ve been getting for
copies, but that’s less certain.
Since we don’t have an official count of participants for the spring yet,
I’m having to estimate how many copies we’ll need. Based on the most recent
survey and previous seasons, here’s what I’m thinking:
*Scores:* 2 copies, 1 for Robert and 1 for an assistant conductor
*Flutes:* (9 signed up) 5 first, 6 second
*Oboes:* (2 signed up) 3, plus any English horn parts that might exist
*Eb Clarinet:* 1, where the parts exist. They won’t exist for all pieces.
*Clarinet:* (13 signed up) 4 first, 6 second, 6 third
*Alto Clarinet:* 1, where the parts exist. They won’t exist for all
pieces.
*Bass Clarinet:* (2 signed up) 2
*Bassoon:* (1 signed up) 2 total, 1 first and 1 second
*Alto Sax:* (5 signed up) 3 first, 3 second
*Tenor Sax:* (3 signed up) 3
*Baritone Sax:* 1, just in case
*Trumpet:* (5 signed up) 3 first, 3 second, 3 third. ***If a piece has
both cornet and trumpet parts, copy three of each cornet part plus 2 of
each trumpet part.
*Horn:* (5 signed up) 2 copies of each part, or 8 total if fewer than 4
parts
*Trombone:* (9 or 10 signed up) 4 first, 5 second, 3 third
*Euphonium:* (3 signed up) 3 bass clef, 1 treble
*Tuba:* (3 signed up) 4
*String Bass:* 1, just in case
*Harp:* 1, if parts exist
*Percussion:* (6 signed up) 1 copy per instrument on each part. So a part
for snare drum/bass drum/cymbals would need 3 copies. [This is a little
confusing, but I can always make more copies later if needed.]
*Robert:* We have copies of about half the scores now. I can get those to
you either this evening or on my way out of town tomorrow, or I can leave
them with Jessica and you can arrange to get them later. I’ll include a
note about which scores already have copies with the music.
*Also Robert:* Because this is a lot of music to copy, could you
prioritize what we absolutely should have for the first rehearsal and what
might be able to lag behind a week or so? Thanks.
Let me know if you guys need any more information. Thanks, everyone.
Jarred
