The newly formed Central Wisconsin Youth Symphony Orchestra program is taking
registrations for this fall.
Students
in grades 6-12 who register before Saturday, August 23, receive a discount.
Early registration is also encouraged as audition time slots will fill quickly.
Auditions will be held Sept. 6-7.
The
program offers a full Symphony Orchestra, Philharmonia (string orchestra) and
Junior Wind Ensemble. Kurt Van Tiem, a music director at P.J. Jacobs Junior High
School in Stevens Point, is the founding director. Rehearsals will be held at
the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Noel Fine Arts Center and a concert
will conclude each semester.
The
program is supported by UW-Stevens Point and area music educators. Information
and registration materials are available through UW-Stevens Point Continuing
Education online at www.uwsp.edu/conted/artculture/Pages/cwyso or by calling 715-346-3838.
