Trevecca Symphony Orchestra




Director: Dr. Timothy Cierpke
The Trevecca Symphony Orchestra has since its inception in 1988 evolved into a full symphonic orchestra. The TSO operates under a five point outline.
  1. Purely volunteer participation by union and non-union musicians, maintaining the integrity of each player's efforts.
  2. Non competitive, friendly atmosphere with no assigned seating (excluding principal players).
  3. Stimulating literature with an eye toward a balance of historical periods.
  4. Detailed rehearsal/performance schedule which provides weekly sequence.
  5. Competent leadership who seeks quality performance within enjoyable rehearsal regimen.
