4 Our Programs and Ensembles American Youth Philharmonic: Our most advanced orchestra, AYP is a musical training ground for the most accomplished young musicians in the area, many of whom go on to have successful music careers. AYP will perform four concerts throughout the year alongside worldrenowned guest artists. Sylvia Alimena, conductor American Youth Symphonic Orchestra: AYSO is a full orchestral ensemble with a focus on musical and leadership development. Repertoire is carefully selected to give both brass and woodwind players solo opportunities, with an emphasis on classical masterpieces that are important for any young player s musical education. Guest conductors will lead AYSO on each of the 3 concerts American Youth Concert Orchestra: AYCO is the first full orchestral ensemble that a musician experiences within the AYPO program. The wide variety of concert repertoire is meant to challenge and educate musicians by exposing them to new styles and techniques. Strong emphasis is placed on training young woodwind, brass and percussion players in the art of orchestral playing. J.D. Anderson, conductor American Youth String Ensemble: AYSE is an intermediate string orchestra for musicians at a comparative level of Suzuki Book 4 or above. An emphasis is placed on understanding the roles and relationships between instruments in the ensemble. AYSE performs both original string orchestra works and arrangements of standard symphonic literature. Laura Cahn, conductor American Youth Debut Orchestra: AYDO is the youngest ensemble, designed to create a fun and focused environment where string players learn the fundamentals of orchestral performance, vital rhythmic and tempo techniques, and overall basic ensemble playing skills. AYDO focuses on the growth and development of musicians at the beginning of their orchestral training. Laura Cahn, conductor Chamber Ensemble Program: The Chamber Ensemble Program is for talented musicians who participate in AYP or AYSO. The program gives musicians the opportunity to enhance their musical development by studying and performing chamber music under the guidance of professional instructors. Coached by the Ensemble da Camera of Washington: Claire Eichhorn (clarinet), Ricardo Cyncynates (violin), Anna Balakerskaia (piano) Small Ensembles: In addition to the Chamber Ensemble Program, small ensembles offer an opportunity for students to rehearse and perform in a smaller setting. Percussion Ensemble (Doug Wallace, director); Harp Ensemble (Elizabeth Blakeslee, director); Flute Ensemble (Laura Kaufman, director); Clarinet Ensemble (TBD, director) 4

6 Membership Policy The success of an orchestral ensemble depends on the commitment of every member. Consistent participation of each individual at weekly rehearsals results in successful performances. The attendance guidelines outlined here define each musician s responsibility in ensuring the success of each ensemble. Carefully review the calendars available online and mark your calendar with dates for all regular rehearsals (including the occassional Tuesday night), final rehearsals, and concerts. Sign-In Policy Upon arrival to all orchestra events, all musicians must sign in with their orchestra s personnel manager. Failure to do so may result in an absence being recorded. All musicians are expected to arrive and warm up at least 15 minutes before rehearsal is scheduled to begin and are expected to remain for the entire duration of all rehearsals, final rehearsals and concerts. Percussionists are to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the rehearsal to set up equipment. The downbeat of the rehearsal is given at the time noted on the schedule. Musicians will be considered tardy if they are not in their seats when tuning begins. Remember to allow extra time for any potential travel delays. Orchestra Rules and Policies There is a short break midway through the rehearsal. Musicians are expected to return to their seats promptly at the conclusion of the break, upon the signal of the personnel managers. Generally, rehearsals will conclude at the stated time, provided musicians are ready to begin promptly at the start time. The conductor may extend the rehearsal beyond the scheduled conclusion time if the rehearsal does not begin promptly. When rehearsing pieces that do not require all musicians (i.e. harp, percussion, low brass), those musicians not playing may be released early. Whenever possible, those musicians will be notified ahead of time at a prior rehearsal or by . Always bring a pencil for marking parts. Musicians must help AYPO s operations team pick up after rehearsals when needed (each musician is responsible for stacking his/her chair and putting it away as directed, disposing of any trash, etc.). Musicians may not study or use a cell phone in any manner while inside the rehearsal room. Staff and volunteers reserve the right to confiscate distracting materials. No food or drinks are allowed in the rehearsal rooms, with the exception of bottled water. Possession of tobacco and alcohol is prohibited on all premises and will not be tolerated. Rehearsals are closed to parents. 6
7 Absence Policy One (1) absence in a concert cycle is the maximum number allowed. Two (2) unexcused absences in a concert cycle result in disciplinary action and will be reviewed by administrative and artistic staff. Excessive absences and late arrival/early departures are considered violations of the AYPO attendance policy and may result in action at the discretion of the administrative and artistic staff. Possible disciplinary actions may include an Attendance Jury; dismissal from performing a concert, suspension from AYPO programs for the remainder of the year; ineligibility to re-audition for AYPO the following year; or in extreme cases, expulsion from AYPO. (One additional absence per concert cycle may be excused if it is due to a direct conflict with an event related to your school music program or a college audition. Any conflicts thereafter will not be excused.) MANDATORY REHEARSALS & CONCERTS The last two consecutive rehearsals prior to a performance are essential to the cohesion of any ensemble. Any musician who is unable to attend these rehearsals must receive approval from the administrative staff at least one week prior to the rehearsal. Failure to do so will result in a student being subject to disciplinary action at the discretion of the administrative and artistic staff. EARLY DEPARTURE Musicians must submit an absence in advance if they need to leave a rehearsal or any scheduled AYPO event early. In some cases, an early departure due to a school commitment or an important family matter will be excused. Early departure due to transportation issues is not permissible. An early departure without advance notification (i.e. failure to submit an ) will be recorded as a partial absence. The absent musician is responsible for materials covered during rehearsal, including announcements, and should contact their stand partner or section principal prior to the next rehearsal to prepare. 7
8 Holidays Rehearsals will not be held on Federal Holidays and during Fairfax County Public Schools breaks. On weeks with Federal Holidays, rehearsals will be held on Tuesday evenings. Monday rehearsals will take place on teacher workdays. Inclement Weather Policy When Fairfax County Public Schools are closed due to snow or other weather conditions, rehearsals will not be held. Members should listen for school closing information on radio and television; after school and evening activities will be announced specifically. The Fairfax County Public Schools website also posts up to the minute information at Members may check the status of rehearsals on AYPO s website ( For weekend rehearsals and concerts, musicians will be informed of cancelation by . **AYP Musicians: If a rehearsal is canceled due to weather, the remaining rehearsals in the concert cycle will be extended by 15 minutes, to make up for the missed rehearsal. ETIQUETTE Rehearsals Musicians should not touch others instruments and should have their own instruments in the case or in hand at all times, rather than laying on a chair. Warm up carefully, discreetly, and in an organized manner. Respond quickly to the conductor s instructions and do not talk. Be considerate when the conductor is working with sections other than your own and be ready to play again as soon as the conductor asks. Show respect to your orchestra s conductor, coaches, personnel managers, librarians, staff and fellow musicians. Persistent, inappropriate behavior, including disrespectful behavior toward fellow musicians, administrative staff, artistic staff, or volunteers, is cause for dismissal. MUSIC Music is entrusted to each musician and must be handled with great care. Music is distributed at the first rehearsal of a concert cycle and must be returned immediately after the concert. If the music is lost, damaged, and/or not returned at the concert, the musician will be charged the cost of a replacement (minimum of $10). A musician who has failed to return music or pay replacement costs will not be permitted to participate in orchestra activities until he or she has arranged for replacement of the music. AYPO will not assume responsibility for personal items left in a music folder. Musical markings or notations should be made in pencil. 8
9 Rehearsals STRINGS Musicians on the outside of each stand will be issued a folder with original parts and musicians on the inside will be issued a practice folder. The correct bowings will appear on the parts in the practice folder and the stand partners have joint responsibility to see that the bowings are transferred into the original parts within the first three rehearsals for that concert program. Folders with original parts must be used on each stand for all concerts. Practice folders are NOT to be used on stage for concerts. WOODWINDS & BRASS Musicians are accountable for the music that is contained in the folder when it is first issued. In the case of any switching of parts (which may occur at the conductor s discretion), all musicians involved must immediately inform the orchestra s volunteer librarian. In a case where changes occur but are not communicated to the librarian, the individual who originally signed for a particular set of parts will be held responsible for those parts. PERCUSSION The Percussion Director acts as liaison between the conductor and section members with regard to instrument and part assignments, and is responsible for reporting any instrumentation needs to the General Manager and Operations Manager. The section reports to the Operations Manager about all instruments and equipment. Percussionists are responsible for assembling, staging, and striking percussion equipment at rehearsals and concerts. All percussionists are expected to be at regular rehearsals, final rehearsals and concerts at least 30 minutes before the beginning of the rehearsal or arrival time for a concert in order to do a proper set up of the section. Percussionists are also responsible for assisting with the pick-up and loading of equipment for weekend final rehearsals and concerts. They are responsible for proper care of all equipment that is owned by AYPO or the facility being utilized, or that is on loan or rental. Members of AYSO and AYCO are expected to be available to perform with both ensembles as required by specific instrumentation. Principal percussionists must provide the General Manager and Operations Manager with a list of percussion equipment needed at the beginning of each concert cycle. Members of the section are expected to assist with procuring small and/or unusual instruments to complete instrumentation for each concert program. MUSIC STANDS All AYPO musicians must bring a music stand to every rehearsal. Be sure to write your first and last name on your music stand (all parts) and the carrying case. 9

11 Participating in Orchestras SEATING Orchestra members are selected by the conductor for principal or section positions based on auditions, the conductor s discretion, the quality of the sound to be achieved, and the good of the orchestra. The conductor reserves the right to alter any seating arrangements or procedures at any time. Conductors may select principal players during auditions and may elect either to seat them at the front of the section for the entire season or to hold seating auditions for each concert cycle. Section players will rotate every concert cycle, either by seating audition or by a mechanical rotation such as used by professional orchestras. Each conductor may decide how to seat the strings in order to create the best educational opportunity, to produce the strongest section, and to develop unity within the section. Winds, brass and percussion positions are determined during the annual audition. Part assignments may vary during the season at the discretion of the conductor and coach, with or without a seating audition. INSURANCE AYPO cannot be responsible for instruments owned by individual musicians. Parents should check their household policy to ensure adequate coverage. PRIVATE STUDY Musicians are expected to maintain an interest in music and at least the level of competency demonstrated at the time of their acceptance into AYPO. All musicians are expected, and strongly encouraged, to have a private music teacher. SCHOOL MUSIC PROGRAM PARTICIPATION All American Youth Philharmonic Orchestras members are expected to take an active part in their school music programs. Participation in school music programs is strongly supported by AYPO, strengthening and enhancing the students in their development within the school community and in their progress through the AYPO ensembles. Before a student can be accepted into an AYPO ensemble they are required to obtain the signed approval of their school music teacher for participation in AYPO. Musicians that are homeschooled or attend a school that does not have a music program should indicate this on the attached form. Musicians with extraordinary circumstances that prevent participation in their school music program are required to explain these in writing to AYPO. Following receipt of a letter, AYPO staff will in all instances engage with the school music staff in order to reach a fair and mutually agreed outcome. Misrepresentation of a musician s participation status in his/her school program is cause for dismissal. If you have any questions regarding the school music policy or this form, please feel free to contact the office at auditions@aypo.org. 11
