Good Morning Band,

Mark Rogers has just completed a full score for Victory at Sea. Along with that is an errata list, many of them dynamic and style markings that were left off of some of the parts. Instead of correcting all these things in rehearsal, if you could please mark your parts. Believe it or not, for band music published in the 50s, at over 300 measures, this is not a very long list, considering everything had to be written out by hand.

It is possible that it this long list I may have typed some errors. If something does not make sense, please let me know. I found two typos in this list that I am sending to Mark. He says this may not be a complete list. If there is something in your part that you question, let me know and will send it to him to check.

See you tonight,
Paul Worosello
