Question 1

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

Whatever makes you comfortable - we're just glad you're here!  We see mostly business casual... some jeans and t-shirts..and some who like the chance to dress up a bit.  But really we do just want to play for you no matter what you're wearing.

Question 2

My ticket has no row/seat?

Accepted Answer

You may sit wherever you like - first come, first choice.

Question 3

When do I clap?

Accepted Answer

Tradition says to clap at the end of a piece,  not between movements (sections),  but these days audiences sometimes can't help but clap after a particularly emotional movement.  If you're unsure,  just wait for others to start.

Question 4

I've  seen other music peformed  live - how is this different ?

Accepted Answer

To get the most out of a live, full orchestra performance  you'll want to immerse yourself.  Silence your phone, be still and listen attentively. That's how to plug your soul into the music.  (Yes, it's that powerful - that's why a lot of what we play has been around for hundreds of years)

Accepted Answer

Question 6
