Description:
Copies of the excerpts will be available once you arrive at the audition, although you may use your own music if you wish. Candidates who receive a favorable vote from their respective audition committee will be placed on the OPO’s sub list; however earning placement on the sub list does not guarantee that you will be offered work by the OPO. The OPO does not reimburse substitute and extra musicians who incur travel expenses (including mileage, accommodations, airplane fare or any other travel costs) in order to audition for or perform with the OPO. The OPO requests that only serious candidates willing to travel to Orlando at their own expense apply for these auditions. The OPO, under Music Director Christopher Wilkins, is a professional, per-service orchestra performing approximately 110 services annually in the Orlando/Central Florida area. We perform full orchestra (classical and pops), opera, ballet, chamber (orchestra and ensemble) and educational services through the season.
