Lakeland Civic Orchestra Seeks New Members
KIRTLAND, Ohio—July 7, 2015—The Lakeland Civic Orchestra, a full symphony
orchestra housed at Lakeland Community College, announces openings for new
members of the orchestra for the 2015-2016 season.
Specific areas of need for the coming season are all stringed instruments
(violin, viola, cello and bass), horn, bassoon, trombone, and percussion.
Musicians who play other woodwind and brass instruments are encouraged to
audition, but may not be immediately offered a regular position.
Interested musicians will be auditioned by appointment during the week of
Aug. 17-21, and should be prepared to sight-read and play a prepared
selection best demonstrating their abilities.
The orchestra performs four concerts annually, and rehearses Monday
evenings on Lakeland’s main campus from August through May. Concerts for
2015-2016 are scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 8; Sunday, April 3; Sunday, May
1; and Lakeland’s Commencement Saturday, May 14. Orchestra members come
from many different backgrounds, from passionate amateurs to professional
musicians seeking additional performance opportunities, and from ages 14
to 80. Lakeland students may earn one college credit per semester for
their participation.
Repertoire reflects the varied interests of the musicians and community,
and ranges from the traditional orchestral repertoire to contemporary
music and popular selections. All performances utilize a full orchestra of
strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion. The concert slated for Nov. 8
will include Beethoven’s "Symphony No. 5," Copland’s "Lincoln Portrait,"
and Gould’s "American Salute."
To schedule an audition, please contact the orchestra director, Dr.
Matthew Saunders, at 440-525-7105 or msaunders4 at lakelandcc.edu.
