Participation
in FMU WIND SYMPHONY (Concert Band)
The FMU Wind
Symphony
welcomes adult musicians!!!
Beginning with the spring 2002
semester, we
rescheduled the Francis Marion University Wind Symphony rehearsals to
Tuesday evenings and invited adult musicians from the region to
participate. Response has been so positive that we would like
to
encourage you and other instrumentalists you know to join us -- there
is no fee unless you choose to enroll for
college music minor/elective credit! For each concert we ask
community participants to commit to
attending the dress rehearsal as well as 4 of the final 6 rehearsals
before
the dress rehearsal.
Tuesday rehearsals are on the
FMU campus in Chapman Auditorium in the McNair Science Building from 7:00 – 9:30. We intend to play the
best available
wind band
literature with the difficulty level determined by the capabilities of
the
players. It promises to be a rewarding experience; if we get
a
strong
representation from the many fine players in our area, we will be able
to
make great music.
If you are interested in participating, just send an email to the address below and include your name, contact information (address and phone number), and the instrument(s) you play.
If you have any questions or would
like additional
information regarding instrumental music opportunities at Francis
Marion University, please contact Craig Alberty or Terry Roberts. You
may write, e-mail,
or call him at the
number listed below. We want you involved in the music program at
Francis
Marion University.
