High School Orchestra Fall 2018 Festival

This is an inaugural high school orchestra Fall 2018 festival that will take place at Pacific University in Forest Grove on Saturday, November 3. The purpose of this event is to provide high school orchestra students and their teachers with an opportunity to perform and get in-depth feedback on their progress early in the school year. Three unique aspects of this festival are: (a) adjudicators for this festival will be string specialist ONLY, (b) each group will have about 90 minutes of close attention (15-20 minutes of performing time for which group will receive in-depth feedback in written form, followed by 30 minutes master class with one of the adjudicators, and another 30 minutes of consultations between the adjudicator and orchestra teacher) and (c) event will conclude by the performance of All Festival Orchestra that will be formed on spot and will perform earlier prepared piece of music under the button of one of the adjudicators. This year’s adjudicators are: Dr. Frank Diaz (orchestra specialist; University of Indiana), Dr. Miranda Willson (cello professor; University of Idaho), Dr. Kelly Johnson (violin instructor/professor; Washington) and Prof. Tyler Abbot (double bass instructor; University of Oregon).
