New: East Tennessee Tubaband!

Post by tubalex »

Please spread the word:

I’m starting a community tuba/euphonium ensemble in Knoxville. My plan for the next year is to rehearse once a month and have three performances: two shows shared with UT student tuba/euph ensembles on Halloween (Octubaween! Part of UT’s annual Octubafest) and early March (part of UT’s annual Spring Tuba Thing) and a full concert without the UT ensembles during the summer. I’ll conduct but I’m working on getting several guest conductors, too.

The first rehearsals will be the last Sundays of August, September and Octuba, 6-8pm in the UT band room, leading up to the Octuba 31 8pm concert in UT’s Powell Recital Hall.

$5 per player per concert cycle, and the funds go to snacks at rehearsals/concerts. So if you play all three concerts the entire year costs you $15 total.

This is open to everyone, and music will range from easy to moderately advanced, but I’m programming with amateur enthusiasts and non-music-major students in mind.

Email me at alapins at utk dot edu with questions and to reserve a spot in the ensemble!
