The Oregon East Symphony has received a $480 grant from the Umatilla County Cultural Coalition for four A Sharp Orchestra Scholarships. The A Sharp Players is a community orchestra open to intermediate and advanced musicians of any age and gives them the opportunity to experience rehearsing and performing with a large ensemble. Rehearsals are scheduled for Sunday afternoons, weekly, from September through April, under the leadership of Bruce Walker, OES Assistant Conductor. Funding for UCCC is provided by the Oregon Cultural Trust, Oregon's innovative public-private partnership that supports the State's arts, heritage and humanities. These grants are to be used in support of local projects which further Umatilla County's Cultural Plan. For more information on UCCC, go online at www.umatillacountyculture.org.
