Peter...I wanted to thank you now for a very successful rehearsal.  I heard from some of  the winds players that  your direction was really helpful.  And from what I heard from listening in, it was great.  I really appreciate your leading the sectional.

Hi Pete,  again, thanks for playing with us Sunday.  I thought the gig went really well for a first one of the season.  I received several compliments from the audience about your playing.  And, all of us in the band thought the sound balance was good and everything worked out very well.  The consensus in the band is that we'd really like to have you play with us again in the future.
