The summer is a time when several of the Community Ensemble take a little break from rehearsals. The Greensboro Big Band, Greensboro Concert Band, Greensboro Percussion Ensembles, High Lonesome Strings, Love Restoration Choir, Philharmonia of Greensboro, and Gate City Horizons are rehearsing into the summer. All other ensembles are taking a break until August or September 2012 when they will begin rehearsal for the 2012-13 OPUS Series. All members, new and returning, are welcome.
Ensembles are open to everyone. Please call the Music Center at 336-373-2026 or by
e-mail if you have specific questions regarding any of the ensembles. Otherwise, feel free to join us at our next rehearsal.
