Auditions Set for Oakton Six Piano Ensemble

Piano enthusiasts are invited to audition for the Oakton Six Piano Ensemble, a unique musical collaboration celebrating its 25th anniversary season. Auditions are scheduled 7 - 9 p.m., Sept. 27, 28, and 29, at Oakton Community College, 1600 E. Golf Road. Music is provided, but candidates also may perform a prepared piano piece.

Conducted by Glenna Sprague, professor and coordinator of music at Oakton, the Six Piano Ensemble has been invited to play at several prestigious venues in the coming year, including the University of Hawaii and the 2005 National Conference of Keyboard Pedagogy. In previous years, the Six Piano Ensemble has performed at the International Conference of the College Music Society in Vienna, Austria; Chicago Civic Opera House; the National-Louis University Artists Series, and the Salisbury University Cultural Event Series.

Founded in 1980, the six piano format challenges adult students to play unique, original arrangements transcribed from the classical, ragtime, and popular repertoires.
