Did you know that for just one concert that we put on for our community we spend:
~ $7,000-$10,000 to compensate our musicians
~ $500 in venue rentals
~ $2000 if we have a soloist performing with us
~ $200-$600 in music fees
~ $300 in printing costs
~ plus other memberships and fees that we pay annually??

Every summer we get out our special cello and try to fill it with donations, but we've never been able to fill it all the way! Could this be the year??

We will have TWO opportunities to fill up the cello this summer!!
~ On Thursday, July 16th at Ga***rd Alpenfest from 11:30 AM-12:30 PM
~ On Saturday, July 25th at our FREE Pops in the Pavilion: Radio Hits Through the Years concert in the Court Street Pavilion at 7PM.

Let's make history together and FILL THIS CELLO UP this summer!!! 🎉🥳🎶🥳🎉

The Ga***rd Community Orchestra is excited to announce our upcoming performance, "Home-Grown: A Spring Concert," featuring Rebecca Reynolds. She will be performing the Gordelli Flute Concerto on May 16 at 7:30 PM at the Gornick Auditorium in Ga***rd High School.

Rebecca Reynolds is a flutist from Ga***rd, Michigan, currently pursuing a Bachelor of Music in Flute Performance and a Bachelor of Arts in Biology at the Lawrence Conservatory of Music under Erin Lesser. Her musical foundation was built in Ga***rd through her studies with Grace Olson, Aaron Hotelling, and Rokko Jans.

An accomplished performer, Rebecca has served as principal flutist in the Lawrence Symphony Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, and Opera Orchestra. She was a 2023 finalist in the Lawrence University Concerto Competition and has participated in masterclasses with Schuyler Thornton, Adam Sadberry, and Kirstin Eade. Her solo recitals have reached audiences in Michigan, Wisconsin, and New Zealand.

Rebecca is also a dedicated proponent of new music, having performed over a dozen world premieres. This past year, she performed in the world premiere of “A Nearer Mother” with the Lawrence Opera and has worked with the Millennium Composers Initiative and the American Composers Orchestra’s “Earshot” readings.

While at Ga***rd High School, Rebecca served as drum major for the Marching Blue Devils.
