It's an exciting (and historic!) day as rehearsals for the tour start today in Urbana, IL. Welcome tour musicians and staff! Looking forward to hearing all about what's going on.
The 2009 Sphinx Chamber Orchestra tour will offer a diverse program featuring well-known repertoire in addition to works by African-American and Latino composers, including works by Mozart, Piazzolla, Michael Abels, and others. The program will feature the acclaimed Sphinx Chamber Orchestra (SCO) in addition to select solo performances by the top Laureates of the national Sphinx Competition for young Black and Latino string players.
