July 13 rehearsal location

We'll rehearse at the Inghams' house on July 13. The address is 4820 Elliot Avenue South. It's twelve blocks south and one block east of the Baha'i Center. We'll start at the usual time, 7:00, and we may go as late as 9:00. I hope everyone can stay a little later than usual.

Three mp3 practice files

I uploaded mp3 files for Anitra's Dance, Jazz Pizzicato, and Trenches of Manchuria for everyone's listening and playing-along enjoyment. The links are on the "current tunes" page. http://www.minnesotamandolinorchestra.org/0809tunes.htm
