Rehearsals
Scruffy City Orchestra is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, pay-to-play organization. Member fees are $50/year.

We have two rehearsal/concert cycles per year with a spring concert in late February/early March and a fall concert in late September/early October. We also have occasional specialty concerts such as a Christmas sing-along at the Cathedral. We do not rehearse during June and July.

Location
The Cathedral Cafeteria (on the campus of The Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus), 711 S. Northshore Dr, Knoxville, TN

Time
Thursday evenings during active sessions, 7-9 p.m.

Equipment
Bring your own stand, instrument(s) and any other items you personally need (stand lights, etc.). Folding chairs are provided on site. Music will be provided or ISMLP inks will be e-mailed to members for personal print-out. The librarian will bring one copy of each part to rehearsal unless you are otherwise notified.

Attendance
Attendance is critical to the success of a community orchestra. Musicians must attend at least 80% of rehearsals to continue as members. Attendance at Thursday dress rehearsal the night before the Friday concert is mandatory. Please make every effort to attend the last two rehearsals in particular. If you cannot meet these requirements and want to continue as a member of the orchestra, speak to the Personnel Manager.

Always let the Personnel Manager know as far in advance as possible if you must miss any rehearsal and inform your section leader as well.
