To ASYO & TDP Students and Families:

Dear ASYO and TDP Students and Families,

The musicians of the Atlanta Symphony want to let you know that we have every intention of continuing TDP lessons and ASYO auditions and rehearsals.

As many of you may have heard through the media, we were locked out of the Woodruff Arts Center (WAC) on August 26. We have been unable to enter the
facilities or take part in anything related to the ASO. We are not receiving
paychecks, and our health, dental and disability insurance was terminated as
of September 1.

While we are disturbed by the unwillingness of the Woodruff Arts Center to
work on reaching a reasonable agreement with us, we don't want this to
affect your musical experiences more than necessary. The musicians plan to
proceed with the ASYO auditions but plan to hold them in an alternate
location due to the fact that we are locked out and therefore unable to use
WAC facilities.

Please stay tuned as we gather symphony musicians and volunteers to organize
and carry through with your previously scheduled auditions. The volunteer
work of parents has always been incredibly valuable to the success of these
programs, and that will be even more true under the present circumstances. 

TDP students, please continue to work with your individual teachers to
schedule lessons for the TDP program.

Thank you very much.

Perhaps we should schedule "Christmas With The AYSO" and the Gwinnett Young Singers this year! :) Heres hoping that we see you in December!

I would be more than happy to help out and volunteer if needed. Please keep us updated on any volunteering needs. Many ASYO and TDP alumni have been following and would like to be involved to make sure the experience continues to current students.

Count me in on volunteering, too. As Tiffany said, there are a lot of alumni who want to do something to help in all of this.

I still have their first album, the 2LP 'Nativity' produced back in 1975 and yes, I still listen to it! The growth of the orchestra since it was founded back in '45 is simply out-of-this-world. The Atlanta Symphony musicians are immensely gifted artists and anyone who really understands music should very easily appreciate this fact. It's such a great shame that I missed their special benefit concerts on September 20 and September 21. I will keep on the watch out for new concert henceforth!
