Orchestra
(Partnership with the Greater Baltimore Youth Orchestra):
Loyola College and The Greater Baltimore
Youth Orchestra (GBYO) have joined
forces. This 80+ member
orchestra is open to students through auditions and is available for
credit.
What is the GBYO? The
Greater Baltimore Youth Orchestra, now in its twentieth-ninth season,
performs orchestral masterworks (as written by the composer – never
arranged) in four concerts each year.
Rehearsals
are held each Sunday 4:00 – 7:00 p.m. at Loyola’s Timonium campus.
Registering and Course Credit: Students
may register for the Orchestra as a course and receive 1.5 credits upon
completion of the semester. Please check WebAdvisor in the near future
for course number and section. For the Fall 2006 semester, students may
register during Drop/Add which is during the first week of classes.
Auditions for Loyola students
will be held on the Main Campus
on Friday, September 8, 4:00-9:00 in the Recital Room CTW040 on the
ground floor of the College Center Fine Arts Wing (below the McManus
Theater). Interested students should register during the first week of
classes (before auditions). Any student who does not pass the audition
can drop the course without penalty.
