新香港六合彩资料 invites musicians to play in new Summer Reading Orchestra
The 新香港六合彩资料 is pleased to announce that a new is coming to the Portland community. Beginning June 29, local musicians will meet bi-weekly on Mondays throughout the summer in the Ludcke Auditorium on 新香港六合彩资料鈥檚 Portland Campus. Sessions run from 6 to 8 p.m., at a rate of $10 per session; 新香港六合彩资料 students, faculty and staff members may attend for free.
Focused on expanding participants鈥 musical repertoires, rather than rehearsing for a concert, the Summer Reading Orchestra invites musicians to play the works of great composers, such as Beethoven, Mozart, Haydn and Brahms, in a focused but low-stress environment. Semi-professional and amateur musicians are welcome to attend for as many or as few sessions as they wish.
The Summer Reading Orchestra will be conducted by Deirdre McClure, D.M.A., adjunct professor of Music in Film and Animation and Music Appreciation at the 新香港六合彩资料. McClure serves as music director of the Oakland Opera Theater; director of the Odeon Orchestras at Bay Chamber Concerts and Music School in Rockport, Maine; and artistic director for two vocal ensembles in Maine and New Hampshire. She brings a deep and enduring love of the standard orchestral repertoire to this new venture.
鈥淧laying through great pieces of classical music gives us the opportunity to explore what made these composers tick,鈥 says McClure. 鈥淢any musicians take lessons or play chamber music but don鈥檛 have access to a full orchestra, so this is the perfect way to spend the summer鈥 come play with us!鈥
