General Information for Players
Come play with us!
Rehearsals are on Sundays from 2:45 to 5:30 PM in Greenwall Auditorium in the VAPA Building at Bennington College in North Bennington, VT. Please allow enough time to be ready to play at 2:45 sharp. Dress rehearsals are usually on the Saturday before the Sunday performance, also 2:45-5:30 pm unless otherwise noted.
There is a short break around the middle of the rehearsal. Players take turns bringing refreshments to share. Dates are assigned by instrument and shown on the rehearsal schedule.
Please check your email (including your Junk folder) frequently so as not to miss important updates on time, location, and/or other rehearsal or concert changes caused by College events, weather, or other factors, as well as other important news.
And please make sure we have your current, correct, and complete contact info!
