Rehearsals
Nova Musica meets weekly for a fun-filled rehearsal with our favorite conductor. These are casual rehearsals, with us focusing on two or three pieces for an upcoming concert. The baton drops at 7:30. We have a half-time coffee and snack break before finishing up promptly at 10 pm. Then, usually a subset of the group goes out for "beveraging" and wind-down at a nearby eatery.
Rehearsals are Tuesdays from 7:30-10 pm at École Gabrielle-Roy (8728 - 93 Ave). Parking is available along the school and across the street. When rehearsals are in session, the front door may be locked and you might need to ring the buzzer. Please bring a music stand! Also, we ask that you bring a separate pair of indoor shoes or wear socks while inside the school.
How to get there
By car: Use the Google map below to find the best route to the Strathearn area. Note that it may be easier to approach the school from the east or north (rather than Connors Road).
By transit: The #8 bus stops only 5 minutes away from the school. Get off at 89th Street on Connors Road. See map for the shortest path to the school (Google Maps gives a circuitous route). Note that if you are coming from the south or west part of town, it is much more convenient to take the LRT to Central Station and then take the #8 southbound from there (rather than the #4 eastbound along Whyte and waiting for a transfer to the #8 northbound, despite what Google Maps or the ETS website recommends).
