The first annual Cellobration Orlando was a huge success! Close to 50 participants gathered for the day-long workshop at Liberty Middle School on March 31st. Prior to the workshop, 30 people attended the cello masterclass held the Friday evening before. Eight talented cellists from the area performed for the guest clinician, Professor Greg Sauer from Florida State University.

On Saturday, three orchestras of celli gathered and rehearsed all day. The beginning, intermediate and advanced groups worked hard to prepare the concert at 5pm. Throughout the day, cellists enjoyed making music, meeting with vendors and trying instruments, raffle prizes, and plenty of social time. During lunchtime, Professor Sauer gave a cello recital which was greatly enjoyed by all.
Plans are already in the works for a bigger and better Cellobration Orlando next year. Hope to see you there!
