Subject: [Pacifica Big Band] Rehearsal 4/1

Got some new charts going for you
Recordings included, make sure you download the parts

Clarinet:
69 "Anti-Hero" (Lauren's the problem, it's her)

420 "California Love" (Most people don't know this but Tupac was a hell of a clarinet player)
https://youtu.be/omfz62qu_Bc?si=rHu_-RRaFIiI1xpV&t=76

Male Vocal:
69420 "Friday" (Greg begged me to do this, Don't blame me. I just work here)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfVsfOSbJY0
3.14159265359 "Gangnam Style" (2 days is plenty of time to learn Korean. Get on it Greggo. Also, no horn parts in this one, so y'all need to learn the dance)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGc_NfiTxng

Female Vocal:
A2/B2=C2 "Rasputin" (We will stretch Robin's range a bit on this one. She can sing bass, right?)
