Planning a concert tour for a youth orchestra

A youth orchestra tour takes dozens of teenagers and their instruments through flights, buses and unfamiliar halls, and every family needs the same dates. This project holds the program, rehearsal photos, scores and parts, travel and family to-dos, the coaches' weekly notes and the concert dates.

The Basque Country Tour project in Thicket over a photograph of green headlands above a calm bay at dusk: the health flag reading At risk, the tour's dates and seven people, then six cards: Rehearsals as nine photographs of the orchestra rehearsing on a school auditorium stage, To-dos with four lists on the progress chart, the Message Board with the double bass rental on top, Scores and parts with the program notes, the new piece's parts and the seating sheet, Sectional notes with the coaches' latest answers, and the Calendar with the families' meeting next.

Kern River Youth Symphony keeps photos from its last run-through in a Docs & Files grid and splits the tour into four lists in To-dos, each a dot on the progress chart. The tour plan, the program and the halls' replies are on the Message Board, and the scores and parts sit in a second Docs & Files. Each coach answers a weekly question about their sectional in Check-ins, and the Calendar holds the rehearsals, the flight and four concerts.
