It’s almost time for another season of the Uintah Basin Youth Chamber Orchestra and the organization is inviting all interested in learning about the organization to an Open House tomorrow evening. “The Uintah Basin Youth Chamber Orchestra is comprised of the most dedicated young string instrumentalists in the Basin,” shares Executive Director Clayton Johnson. “We are excited to announce that we will be accepting auditions for the organization’s 8th season. We invite all string students from Duchesne and Uintah County to come be part of this outstanding orchestra. Come be part of a community of like-minded musicians just like you!” Current members are ages 11 to 17 but the organization accepts auditions from string instrumentalists ages 10 to 21. The Open House is from 5 to 7pm on Thursday, August 15th, in the Uintah High band room. Enter from the north doors. If you have a young string musician in your home, regardless of their current ability, this is an opportunity to learn more about the organization, meet the directors, and consider involvement now or in the future. Johnson says he feels very fortunate to work with these amazing young musicians and is looking forward to the new season. For more information, email ubycomusic@gmail.com.
