EDS students and Alum looking to perform

This a letter from Gina Provenzano conductor of the Bangor Symphony Youth Orchestra:


Hello everyone!

Thank you all for sending your students for the BSYO auditions.  We had a great showing and have created a very strong group.  The strings in particular are incredible.  Many are all-state students and its going to be wonderful working with these kids!!

We are still however in need of STRONG brass players in the Philharmonic Orchestra especially trombones!!  I could use one more trumpet to double on 2nd part.  We have one strong horn player but would love a couple more.  Can you please all ask your brass players one more time.  We can waive the fee and even have them play half a year if needed.  This group is going to be incredible IF I find trombones.  I will come to your school if needed to hear them.  
We are playing Finlandia, Farandole and Dance Bacchanale---all huge brass parts!!!  We are also in need of one clarinet in the Philharmonic if anyone has a student interested. 
The younger orchestra --Prelude is still in need of ALL wind players.   This group only plays grade level 2 at this point so a younger player (maybe a ms district honors member) will do just fine.  We have strings but welcome more.
We are willing to work with schedules--please have any interested student contact me at home at 989-5298.
Thank you again for your help----I don't want any student to miss out on this.  The level is really going to be something!
Gina
