The Academy of Saint Cecilia Youth Orchestra

Here are the call times for the concerts this weekend. The call time is the time by which you should arrive at the venue. Please do not be late. Please pay attention to these times! Each of the ensembles needs adequate warm-up time to do their best on these wonderful concerts. While every effort is made to have the call times close to the performance time, some groups will have down time before the concerts. Please bring homework to work on or other things to do while you wait.

Please note: the ensemble order is the concert order. At Asbury, the Youth Orchestra will play a little before the Prep Orchestra plays. The Youth Orchestra will then play again and end the program.

If you have any questions, concerns, or problems, contact Lerna immediately
