In a first for the organization, The Perlman Music Program/Suncoast is inviting local musicians to join with the students of PMP’s Super Strings program under the baton of acclaimed violinist and conductor Itzhak Perlman. Musicians who play violin, viola, cello and/or bass are invited to audition for a spot, and a preparatory workshop with local music instructors will be held to guide and support prospective participants. Applicants must be between the ages of eight and 18, and must submit to PMP/Suncoast a completed application, letter of recommendation and a video audition in mp4 format (via link to YouTube, Dropbox or even a thumb drive in the mail) by September 13. This year’s piece to be performed is Mozart’s Eine Klein Nachtmusik K.525, movement 1, and sheet music and suggested fingerings are available on the PMP/Suncoast website.
