Music stands are provided at rehearsals. Seats will be assigned, and we may change seats between rehearsals. Most rehearsals begin with instrument specific sections led by some of Calgary’s finest musicians. After a short snack break, we rehearse as a full orchestra. On occasion, guest conductors and coaches are invited to allow us to enjoy new ideas and styles of teaching and conducting.
Some guest conductors and coaches we have been honoured to work with in the past:
Conductor: Tom Megee, Shirley Wright, Jason Erhardt, John Thompson
Violin: Brigit Knecht, Sanja Suplevska, Barb Smith, Mary Jane Vandekerkhove, Steve Lubiarz, Rob Penner, Elisa Milner, Eileen Kosasih, James Desautels, Louise Stuppard, Janna Sailor
Viola: Ronelle Schaufele, John Thompson, Megan Singer, Heather Heron, Rachel Kratofil
Cello: Andrea Case, Tom Megee, Shirley Wright, Jason Erhardt, Jeff Faragher
Bass: Graeme Mudd, Ross Lemon, Sheila Garrett, Patrick Staples
Our dress rehearsal is on March 14, 2023 and our wrap up concert performance is on March 21, 2023 at 8:00 p.m. Both are held in our performance venue:
Temple B’nai Tikvah
900 47th Avenue SW
Calgary, Alberta
**You will need to bring you own music stand for the dress rehearsal and concert at Temple B’nai Tikvah.**
Our wrap up concert is open for all to attend! All we ask is that you bring a non perishable food item for donation to the food bank (there will be a table set up in the gathering area).
The Orchestra has signed a “release of liability” waiver required by the venue on behalf of all that will be in attendance.
