Well, my day today (today only) just got slightly less frantic.
And may I just say: PEOPLE ARE IDIOTS. Thank you.
The Hello, Dolly! orch rehearsal tonight is cancelled, which I wouldn't have known if I hadn't dashed off a quick note asking which entrance to use at the venue. The email that went out with that update had either a wrong email address for me or none at all, which I suspect was the case because I was a late hire.
The other thing I wouldn't have known (from the same errant email) is that the TRANSPOSITIONS are in the Google folder. This, after the same IDIOT had told me days ago that they weren't using them, everything would be in the original keys. Which I love. And I loved playing through them yesterday. It was a breath of fresh air. Because: I hate the transpositions. Of course they're necessary. I still hate them. And now all this extra work because of them, integrating them into my books, transferring markings, etc., after thinking I am ALL DONE with the prep work.
The one good thing is that I now have the rest of the day to prepare for tomorrow, which has the greater challenges anyway.
