Did you play an orchestral instrument in high school? Do you miss making music with others?
The Augsburg Symphony Orchestra is looking for students from all majors who would like to continue their musical journey. Whether you were a member of your high school orchestra or haven’t played regularly in a while, we’d love to welcome you.
Playing in the orchestra is a fun way to:
+ Keep your musical skills alive
+ Meet fellow students who love music
+ Perform exciting repertoire in concerts throughout the year
+ Be part of a supportive and welcoming community
You don’t need to be a music major. If you play a string, woodwind, brass, or percussion instrument and are interested in joining us this fall, we’d love to hear from you! Contact Professor Mark Elliot Bergman at bergman1@augsburg.edu
