Have you been yearning to sing in community or keep your talent on an instrument sharp? BRAVO Youth Orchestras has two opportunities for community members of all ages to join them in making music!
Bravo Community CHOIR welcomes and accepts all people from ALL walks of life to come together with one sole purpose: Spreading Love Through Music! The choir has an eclectic repertoire and rehearses on Thursdays from 7:00 p.m.-9:00 pm at Bakery Block, Suite 110, 2222 NE Oregon Street in Portland. No one is exempt from participating in this choir! BRAVO welcomes anybody and everybody. If you have questions, please contact Choir Director Joshua Sommerville at joshua@oregonbravo.org.
BRAVO Community ORCHESTRA offers the opportunity to students, BRAVO staff, and community musicians to play and learn new repertoire in an orchestral environment, developing listening skills, fostering respect for others, and a sense of belonging. They rehearse on Fridays from 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. at the Buckley Auditorium on the University of Portland campus, 5000 N Willamette Blvd in Portland. For more information, please contact Orchestras Manager Marian Gutierrez-Curiel at marian@oregonbravo.org.
