The Galway Youth Orchestra is recruiting new strings and wind players next month, but first it will present its Winter Concert at the Galway Community College Music Centre on Wellpark Road, Galway, on Saturday, December 9, at 7:30pm.
Conducted by Michael Dooley, Joanne Cater, and Ingrid Nicola, the orchestra will showcase the talents of two young soloists: Erin Saunier O’Brien on piccolo, and Luke Moreno on French horn.
The concert will take place in the newly refurbished performance space, graciously offered by Music Generation and GCC. Organisers say this addition to Galway's concert venues is a welcome development for the orchestra.
In January, the orchestra will conduct auditions for new junior and intermediate-level string and wind players. For more information about the auditions, email [email protected] or phone 0872614357.
