The Penobscot Bay Orchestra invites orchestral musicians from around the Penobscot region to join us in an open rehearsal to read through pieces for the Spring 2026 season. Interested players should contact Penobscot Bay Orchestra to acquire music in advance.

“Music is a great equalizer,” says conductor Deirdre McClure. “I admire this group - they are teachers, veterinarians, inn keepers, farmers, carpenters, medical professionals, students, potters, knitters, mechanics. They come together to make music, and their diverse backgrounds, ages, and beliefs create a rich camaraderie that only comes from working together with a singular purpose.”
