Autumn is here, which means that Sinfis will play and enjoy music again after the summer break!
Sinfis has taken a sneak peek for the autumn season about a week ago by practising for the opening festival concert of the University of Jyväskylä with a smaller group of orchestra members. In addition, there was a space rental gig in Taulumäki church in which the music group assisted with the mass. There was no shortage of things to do this week either, as a string quartet formed from Sinfis players performed, as usual, the Andante festivo at JYU's opening ceremony. In turn, on Thursday Sinfis gave a concert together with the wind band Puhkpillit as part of the university's opening festivities. The audience was full and, at least among the musicians, the atmosphere was awesome!
The concert with Puhkupillit was by no means the last of its kind: this autumn's project is going to be a joint concert between Sinfis and Puhkupillit, and it will be November 19. The orchestras will perform both together as well as as their own groups. The program includes both classical and more brass band-like music.
The regular rehearsals starts on upcoming Monday 5th September at 5pm in the Musica building M103 auditorium, as usual.. Welcome both new and old players! If you can't make it to the first rehearsal, that's fine, you can join the following week as well.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the intendant for more information: intendetti@sinfis.fi
