I. OLYMPIA YOUTH ORCHESTRA AUDITIONS
Dear Friends & Colleagues:
It is very important for students to have a good musical education on
top of academics and sports as extra curricular activity during their
school years. The Olympia Youth Orchestra is a high level orchestra
which only performs original standard repertoire as well as works
by contemporary composers. Easy arrangements are seldom included
in the concert programs.
Please kindly spread the word that the Olympia Youth Orchestra will
be holding its annual auditions from now until the end of August.
Interested students should go on the website at
http://www.olympiaphil.org/wp/ and submit the application form
under “youth orchestra”. Audition requirements are scale and solo
piece of student’s own choice plus some sight reading of orchestral
excerpts from the standard repertoire.
Rehearsals are on Sunday afternoons at CSULA. Annual tuition fee
is $650. There are 4 performances each season, 2 on the campus
of CSULA and 2 at the historic San Gabriel Mission Playhouse. Non-
CSULA students will also have an option of enrolling at CSULA for
transferable college credits of the orchestra class for an additional
charge by the university.
Thank you so much!
Fung Ho

GLENDALE NOON CONCERTS will feature
Mandolinist EVAN MARSHALL.
Jacqueline Suzuki
Curator, Glendale Noon Concerts
818 -249-5108
Evan J. Marshall is an internationally renowned
mandolin virtuoso, and is widely regarded as
he world’s premier solo performer on mandolinin
Duo-Style. By himself, he sounds like several
of the world’s finest mandolinists performing
together. His stylistic signature is Classical,
with strong influences from the Italian and
American Folk traditions. Country guitar
legend Chet Atkins called Evan “A true
virtuoso, one of the few great musicians
of our time.”
Inspired by Atkins and violinist Jascha Heifetz,
Evan has created a uniquely recognizable
approach to solo mandolin performance that
combines bass lines, chords, rhapsodic runs
and tremolo melodies. He started Classical
violin studies at age seven, and added the
mandolin at age 14.
In addition to solo performances, Evan has
been a Featured Guest Artist in Pops concerts
with a number of Symphony Orchestras, including
Houston, Phoenix, Long Beach, Grand Rapids, Fort
Worth, San Antonio, Jacksonville, and Pensacola.
Two of his solo mandolin recordings have
been released by Rounder Records:
