Hi existing and potential orchestra members!
Please note that there are VENUE CHANGES for the month of March. Further details can be found in the ESME Calendar shown on the main sidebar of this website and linked here.
See you March 4th at the Musikhochschule!
Welcome back, singers and instrumentalists, to another fun-filled year of music making!
The big band members are in full swing with two rehearsals already behind them in preparation for their up-coming gig on June 22. Big band rehearsals occur on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of every month in the Kreativ Garage from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and on alternating Thursday evenings. We are currently searching for a pianist, trompeter and trombone player for the big band on http://www.musiker-sucht.de
Rehearsals for the orchestra begin on Monday, January 21 and the singers will start rehearsals on Wednesday, January 23. Both ensembles rehearse at the Bavaria Musikstudios starting at 7:00 p.m. We are very excited to welcome back our music directors, Daniel Stratievsky and Eric Weddle, who will take the conductor’s podium for the orchestra and singers, respectively.
We are planning a few extra activities this year in addition to our summer concert, planned for Saturday, July 13. For example, our ESME Weekend Away has been confirmed for April 19-21 in Bad Schussenried.
Members, please log in for information on the music (Orchestra | Singers).
Singers and instrumentalists in the Munich area are welcome to sign up here to get more information. Although no auditions are necessary and you’re welcome to come by during our regular rehearsals anytime, please check our Vacancies post for details on our immediate needs.
The local Munich amateur music organization, English-Speaking Music Ensembles (ESME) e.V. is pleased to host its 3rd concert of the year, titled: “A Winter Warm-up: Carols and Classics” on Sunday, December 2nd at 4:00 p.m. in the Carl-Orff-Saal at the Gasteig cultural center. As in the past, the show promises a wide range of music, from classical to jazz to favorites of the season.
The family-friendly performance features all three of ESME’s established ensembles: Orchestra, Singers and Big Band under the direction of Daniel Stratievsky, Kristin Fehlauer and Mark Davey. The orchestra will “warm up” the stage with movements from Bizet and Mahler, to be later joined by the choir for Mozart’s Coronation Mass. The singers’ lush harmonies evoke fireside coziness, contrasting with the big band’s lively holiday rhythms. It may be cold outside, but the closing combined performance of Christmas carols should warm everyone’s heart.
Advance ticket purchases are highly recommended. Tickets (€8-18)* can be purchased online at München Ticket: http://www.muenchenticket.de or at one of the many locations throughout Munich (Hauptbahnhof, Marienplatz, Olympiapark or Gasteig).
