Idyllic Symphony Youth Public Welfare Orchestra Huilongguan Jinyu International A-Level Orchestra First Rehearsal

Pastoral Symphony Youth Orchestra Huilongguan Jinyu International A-Level Orchestra First Rehearsal June 25, 2026 · Thursday · 18:30 Rehearsal free, performance free, competition free Orchestra: Jinyu International Pastoral Symphony Youth Orchestra (A-Level Orchestra · Performance Level) Time: June 25, 2026 (Thursday) 18:30 – 20:30 Location: Huilongguan Jinyu International Community Conductor: Professor Tian Yuan (Artistic Director/Conductor) Following the first rehearsal at Tongzhou Yueshan Bookstore on June 20, the Pastoral Symphony Youth Orchestra’s A-Level Orchestra at Huilongguan Jinyu International Community is about to launch its first rehearsal. This is the second rehearsal site for Pastoral Symphony in Beijing and the first performance-level string orchestra in the Jinyu International Community. The A-Level Orchestra is Pastoral Symphony’s performance-level ensemble, open to players with some foundation. Unlike the B-Level Orchestra (for beginners with no prior experience), A-Level members must have basic music reading ability and instrumental performance skills, enabling them to independently present pieces. First Rehearsal Procedure 18:30 New Player Instrumental Showcase Each new player prepares one piece and performs it live in front of the entire ensemble. After the showcase, the instructor assigns seating based on actual skill level—regardless of age or experience, based solely on what is played today. 19:00 Section Assignment and Seating Confirmation Section assignments and seating are determined based on showcase results. 19:15 Ensemble Rehearsal Professor Tian Yuan leads ensemble training, from sectional coordination to overall collaboration. 20:15 Rehearsal Summary Review key points from the rehearsal and assign practice tasks for home. Note for New Players: The first rehearsal requires preparing one piece for a live showcase. The showcase is an orchestra tradition—letting each child play in front of everyone is both a test of their own skill and a sign of respect for fellow orchestra members. Don’t be nervous; just play the piece you are most confident in. Orchestra Rules Public welfare does not mean laxity; free does not mean lack of seriousness. The five core rules of the Pastoral Symphony Youth Orchestra: Punctuality — Arrive 10 minutes early to tune and warm up; lateness makes the entire section wait for you. No Absences — No leave without a compelling reason; last-minute cancellations or post-hoc explanations are not acceptable. Parents Wait Outside the Rehearsal Hall — Rehearsal is between the children and the conductor; leave the space to the children. The nearby Changfazhan shopping mall is available for parents to visit while waiting. Music Folder and Scores — Bring your own music folder; scores are distributed uniformly. Take them home to practice after rehearsal and bring them back next time. Bring Your Own Music Stand — The Jinyu International rehearsal site has a limited number of stands; please bring your own. Respect the Conductor and Fellow Players — When the conductor speaks, everyone stops and listens; when others play, do not chat or cause disruption. Pastoral Symphony Rehearsal Sites Currently, the Pastoral Symphony Youth Orchestra has established rehearsal sites in three communities: ► Tongzhou Yueshan Bookstore (A-Level Orchestra · Rehearsals underway) ► Huilongguan Jinyu International Community (A-Level Orchestra + B-Level Orchestra · Launching soon) ► Shuangjing Baihuan Jiayuan A rehearsal site in Haidian is still being sought.
