Just like the image above says, Eastern Music Festival invites all alumni, both student and faculty, to return this summer and celebrate 50 years of music education...celebrate the Gift of Music!
The weekend will involve taking in a Young Artists performance on Friday as well as an Eastern Festival Orchestra concert on Saturday, featuring Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, violin. Alum also have the option of attending Musically Speaking sessions as well as the Master Class led by Ms. Salerno-Sonnenberg on Friday, July 8th. A more detailed list of events is found here.
Whether you still play every day or you haven't played in months, we also invite you to participate in our 50th Alumni Orchestra! On Saturday, team up with fellow alumni and friends to perform Symphony No. 9 in E minor, op. 95 (New World Symphony) by DVOŘÁK! (I left his name in all caps to emphasize...that, and I couldn't find the 'insert symbol' key here without going back and forth from Microsoft Word!).
We are asking for everyone to register for the Alumni Weekend, so we can get a good idea on the head count and t-shirts, etc. Also, we need to make sure we'll have enough instruments for the New World Symphony!
See the Registration Form for more information on cost of attendance. As an alumn you and your spouse will receive free tickets to the Friday Young Artist Orchestra concert as well as a generous discount on tickets to the Saturday EFO performance. But be quick - registration is due by March 15, 2011 for the 50th Alumni Orchestra event!
We can't wait to see all of our wonderful alumni this summer as we celebrate our 50th Anniversary! If you have any other questions about the Alumni Weekend, please let me (Carrie@EasternMusicFestival.org) know!
In the meantime...enjoy our Reflections and keep checking for our season announcement. Should be up by the end of this week on the website :) Brochures to follow shortly!
