As your conductor, it is my hope to bring to you the finest and most
challenging music from the master composers. I believe and expect that every member can, and will, rise to the level of performance
of which we all may be proud. The Conductor's mission is to constantly advance the individual player's skills and the ensemble's
performance capability. I will challenge you to be a professional player, regardless of your age. There are great composers
that need to be heard through their music, and heard most intimately in the PLAYING of their music. We will sit side by side
with P. I. Tchaikowsky, Rogers & Hammerstein, John Williams, G. Verdi, A.L. Webber, Guilmant and Dvorak. We
will get to know them well.
Musically,
Dennis A. Noon
Wolfgang is self-supporting with seasonal dues and
donations. The dues for the Winter/Spring Season are $50 per instrumentalist and $25 per vocalist. Dues are used to cover
expenses for rent of rehearsal hall, music, equipment, programs, pictures, concert CDs, postage and other incidental expenses
of the group.
Dues also express a commitment on the part of the musicians to rehearse
regularly and to perform, missing no more than two rehearsals per season. Dress
rehearsal and concerts are required for participation in Wolfgang.
Instrumentalists need to provide their own music stand and all musicians need to provide their own basic
black concert attire. Rehearsals are held from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. in Hedges Central (Entrance 16), Corner of 7th and Canal,
Mt. Vernon, IN.
