ORCHESTRA
SEEKS PLAYERS
The
Southern Tier Symphony has announced auditions to be held in August 2010 in Olean. The specific need is for string
players, double reeds, and trombones, who would be new to the
orchestra.
Wind applicants should come prepared to play two works of contrasting
style. Those musicians who play violin,
viola, cello or bass will be asked to prepare a work, preferably a concerto
movement, of their own choosing. All applicants will
also perform a brief sight-reading example.
Those string players who plan to audition
may call
personnel manager, Tina Skolnik at 716 372-0955.
Next fall, the
orchestra will begin its eighth season and pays a modest per-service fee to
each member of the group. There are
currently 16 services per season preparing for three concert programs.
The
initial concerts next season, held at Houghton College and Olean High School, will be
held in October.
Any additional questions may be addressed to
John Whitney at 716-372-5001
