Returning for its eighth year, the VGM CON Orchestra Clinic is a chance for participants to play their favorite music from video games in an ensemble setting!
The VGM CON Orchestra Clinic consists of rehearsals, a workshop, and a performance with music from a variety of games. The clinic is led by violinist Ken Schuster who teaches orchestra in the Robbinsdale Independent School District 281.
We believe that incorporating the fundamentals of classical orchestral performance with the excitement and energy of music from games makes for a powerful educational experience that inspires a unique passion in life-long learners. We encourage musicians of all levels and musical backgrounds to participate. This is the music that is stuck in your head all day, and now you can PLAY it on your instrument with other fans!
Three rehearsals will take place before the concert on Sunday morning. The group will rehearsals and performance are as follows:
5pm on Friday 4/19
5pm on Saturday 4/20
10am on Sunday 4/21
