Rehearsals
The orchestra meets weekly on Tuesday evenings, working on both modern and the great orchestral works, readying for audiences all over the Penobscot Bay region.
Twice a year, we hold open rehearsals, inviting those who might like to join us to come and read from works that we plan to perform. Open rehearsal for the start of our Fall Season was Tuesday, September 16, from 6 to 8 pm. The season will culminate with concerts December 13 and 16. You can still join us for the fall season. Music will be available. Contact us if you have questions, or would like to let us know
you will be there.
Performances
Our Fall/Winter 2025 Concerts are planned for Saturday, December 13 in Belfast, and Tuesday, December 16 at 7:00 pm in Camden. The Penobscot Bay Orchestra begins its 5th season, following an impressive start in 2021. The orchestra has been using the arts to stimulate and advance compassionate involvement in significant social issues, and has given over $5,000 in audience donations to the United Midcoast Charities, The Landing Place - Knox County Homeless Coalition, Healthy Lincoln County, the Camden Area Christian Food Pantry., Interfaith Fuel Fund, Habitat for Humanity, and Waldo County Bounty. We are now turning our attention to creating musical opportunities for our rural youth.
The orchestra's August concerts included music of Mozart, Gilbert & Sullivan, and more. The Camden concert was sponsored in part by First National Bank. For a list of the repertoire we have performed., click on the Repertoire link.
