Orchestra rehearsals

Dear music lovers,

This year orchestra invites you to discover music from all around the globe.

In a period of five to six weeks you will have the chance to experience different

music styles with a special focus on a cultural piece.

In the first period we are going to take you on a journey to Greece

with a Greek dance piece. In addition to this, we will also work on

4 different pieces, ranging from classical to modern.

The titles for the coming five weeks:

• Dirriwachter - XOPTAPAKIA (Greek dance)
• Vivaldi - Spring
• Tschaikovsky - Tanz der Schwane
• Flemming - Summer lazy rag
• Webber - Memory (cats)

Are you interested?

Come to our rehearsal and bring your instrument!!

Orchestra has weekly meetings on Wednesdays from 16.00 - 18.00 in the Beach Party Area

General Information

The Orchestra invites everyone who plays a string or wind instrument to join! The Orchestra Committee was founded in 2004. It is a small Orchestra using ad-hoc instrumentation to play a widely varied repertoire of pieces. Previously played works include Saint-Saëns Danse Macabre, and Ronan Hardiman’s Lord of the Dance. The Orchestra welcomes both beginning and experienced players. Rehearsing for two hours every week, the Orchestra members work hard -in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere- to prepare for returning events such as the Classical Campus Concert. The Orchestra functions as a forum for musicians on campus, and means to provide a fun experience to its members, as well as a valuable contribution to the UC community. If you would like to experience playing in an Orchestra, or if you think you can contribute to our sound, you are very welcome to sit in and listen –or better yet; to sit in and play along!
