I'd like to start this thread for the various orchestras, ensembles, societies etc to post news about their organization.
Thank you Scott for acting on my request to rename this forum section to include Orchestral. Hopefully there will enough posts to make this an interesting thread.
Here in Eastern Pennsylvania I am playing with The Philadelphia Mandolin Ensemble & The Reading Mandolin Orchestra. I had also played with The Munier Mandolin & Guitar Orchestra for 24 years. Although I am not playing with Munier now, I am still trying to recruit new players for the orchestra.
Currently all of these groups have suspended rehearsals and have cancelled concerts. I am sure that most groups across the country and around the world have done the same.
We have successfully done several remote recording sessions using Audacity and other software. We're still working on this project so hopefully I will soon have recordings to share with the Mandolin Cafe community. We've learned a lot about this process so if anyone would like tips or can offer tips please tell us.
We all look forward to the day when we can again rehearse and offer concerts to our local communities. I pray that day will be soon.
Please share any news or stories about your organization.
Stay safe and healthy,
Joe Todaro
