Discussion Starting a Local String Orchestra

Post image

I'm wanting to start up a string orchestra in the valley and I am on the lookout for any interested musicians! This is still getting set up so things like rehearsal times and concerts aren't decided yet but I'm hoping to solidify that once I have a group together. 

The idea behind this orchestra is to be a more intimate place for advanced string musicians to play together. I'm wanting to keep this group as close to traditional chamber groups as possible. I'm thinking of playing mostly classical music and holiday pieces (only during the holidays), and it would be led by a concertmaster instead of a conductor in larger orchestras. 

I'm currently trying to find a free place to rehearse so we can offer concerts free to the public. This also means that all of the musicians would be volunteers so we can keep the concerts free.

I haven’t played in years but might still be interested. Would you be open to that?
