The Lakeshore Youth Philharmonic and Sinfonia Orchestras will hold competitive auditions on Sunday, Sept. 14, 2008, starting at 2 pm at Carthage College, Room 253 in the Johnson Center for the Fine Arts in Kenosha.
Advanced string, woodwind, brass and percussion middle and high school musicians from southeast Wisconsin and northeast Illinois are invited to audition. By appointment only, auditions may be scheduled by calling (262) 605-0269.
Both ensembles provide orchestral training with a challenging repertoire and professional conductors.

Membership includes students from schools with and without orchestra programs as well as those who are home-schooled.
The purpose of the Lakeshore Youth Philharmonic (LYP) is to enrich the lives of young people within a musical community, by providing the finest possible classical music orchestral training, practice and performance opportunities, enabling our students to learn, share and enjoy the power of music in a culturally enriching environment. Gifted musicians, dedicated conductors, challenging music and exciting and exacting performances, have always characterized the LYP.
