Sinfonietta and Strings rehearsals MOVE to Westminster Congregational Church, b
eginning on November 14th
Our rehearsal venue will be changing in a few weeks for Sinfonietta and Strings. Beginning on Monday, November 14th, these orchestras will rehearse each week at Westminster Congregational Church, 411 S. Washington (just 1 1/2 blocks north of our current location). Rehearsals will continue to take place on Mondays from 6-8 p.m. Please see the attached WESTMINSTER PARKING MAP regarding parking, drop-off and pick-up. Plan to bring your child early on November 14th. We will have a tour of the building from 5-5:30 p.m. so students and parents can get familiar with the new environment.

Visitors' Night
We would like you to invite adult friends, preferably NON-SYS PARENTS
(teachers, grandparents, neighbors, etc.) to introduce them to SYS
this coming Monday, October 31st from 6:30-7:30 p.m. during Symphony and Philharmonic rehearsals to learn more more about our program and watch our orchestras and conductors prepare for our upcoming concert. We will give each of those who attend Visitors’ Night two free ticket vouchers for the November 6th concert.
There is a
limited amount of space for visitors
at this event. This opportunity is on a first-come, first serve basis,
so RSVP is required
. Please print the attached invitation, have your child write their name on the line by "Student's Name" and give it to those you think would be interested in coming. They will need to send an
email to info@spokaneyouthsymphony.org
or
call 509-448-4446
to let us know that they plan to come.

SYS/SSQ Chamber Program
We are working with the Spokane String Quartet to begin a new strings chamber music program. There will be a limit of 16 participants (Symphony only) to form three or four chamber ensembles. Each group will get four coaching sessions with a member of the Spokane String Quartet between November and May. Additional rehearsal times and locations will be the responsibility of the ensemble members to coordinate. These chamber groups may have opportunities to play at the Fox before Spokane Symphony concerts and/or other locations such as retirement centers and hospitals. To qualify for consideration, please complete this survey and let us know that your child would like to participate. Once the student is invited to participate, they can be registered with a $100 fee. Financial assistance may be available for students who qualify for tuition assistance (if they qualify for the program). Please note: instrumentation will be taken into account when forming the chamber groups so response to this survey DOES NOT guarantee participation in the program. Participants MUST be members of the Spokane Youth Symphony Orchestra to qualify.
NOTE: We would like to encourage more violinists to apply for the chamber music program. Also, preformed ensembles are encouraged to apply.
