FIRST EYSO FULL REHEARSAL The first full orchestra rehearsal requiring winds and percussion is Wednesday, October 8th at the usual time of 7:30-9:30 p.m. at the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts on the Emory campus. TUITION FEES Students are reminded that EYSO musicians also selected for AYWS pay a one-time tuition fee of $250 covering both ensembles. In those instances, tuition will be collected by AYWS and made payable to AYWS. Students participating in EYSO and not AYWS pay their tuition fee to EYSO at the October 8th rehearsal. CAR POOLING It is almost a certainty that there are other students from your school or immediate area participating in EYSO, possibly in the string section as well as the wind and percussion sections. A database of the roster will be made available to all students in to help facilitate car-pooling. ALTERNATES Alternate players will be notified by email. www.music.emory.edu/eyso
2008-2009 Personnel
Thank you to everyone who auditioned for the Atlanta Youth Wind Symphony this year. We scheduled nearly 300 auditions, and were pleased to hear many well-prepared, spirited, musically interesting performances.
Because of a highly talented applicant pool and stiff competition, we regret that we are not able to offer admission to all qualified applicants. No former members are guaranteed re-admission, and in many sections, All-State caliber players were not able to be offered a position.
It is our hope that the audition experience was enjoyable and educational, and whether the "news" is good or bad, that you will use this as a springboard to continue excellent music-making in your home schools and other programs around Atlanta.
Rehearsals begin on Monday, August 18th at 7:30 pm in Tharp Rehearsal Hall at the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts on the Emory campus.
