Hi all! There are lots of underwriting cards that have special
pronunciations. Please pre-read all cards, and always pay special attention
to the pronunciations, practicing them ahead of time. If you have
questions, feel free to ask me, and I can clarify how something should be
pronounced.

I occasionally send out the UPI pronunciation style key we use, so you know
how to interpret our pronunciations. I’m attaching again here, as a
reminder.

Someone from SLO Master Chorale called to say they heard the Ralph in Ralph
Vaughan Williams pronounced the way it looks, rather than the correct way,
which is “RAYF”.

Thanks!

Marisa
