SLSO violinist Hannah Ji performs music by Bologne, an early Black composer for the symphony orchestra. We exit through the art gallery—Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition is an epic tour of musical paintings and vibrant orchestral colors. A great gift for musicians, composers and music lovers. The freedom to dress comfortably and according to our own whims, rather than others’ doesn’t mean we will chose to be slovenly and unkempt. Allowing others to be comfortable in their skin — and their choice of fabric — means we are are at least trying to show kindness and respect to our fellow humans’ personal decisions. Maybe we are getting closer to a time when it really doesn’t matter what the Joneses are wearing as long as we are free to be our authentic selves at the park, out to dinner, and yes, at the orchestra.
The mission of the University City Symphony Orchestra is to provide rich musical experiences and educational opportunities for the culturally diverse community of University City and beyond. From its inception, the UCSO has maintained a diverse and inclusive orchestra, Board of Directors and audience. The orchestra and its Board have always reflected inclusivity of participation from the full spectrum of cultural, ethnic, and gender diversity within our greater community. They are friends, teachers, parents, and siblings with a multitude of interests and talents. Get to know the musicians with this video playlist and explore our other videos on YouTube.

For example, a female cellist, because she must play with her instrument between her knees, may opt for a pant suit. Soloists may opt to go sleeveless and even strapless if desired but still are expected to display some degree of modesty. Our easy-care tea-length concert dress has a full skirt with a 2” blind hem for easy length adjustment. Shown with our modest scoop neckline and ¾ length sleeves. Make sure that your concert dress is the correct size. Is your dress squeezing you in the shoulders in any way?

We are so used to the excessive PR campaigns and the pop culture stars like Madonna, Lady Gaga and Beyoncé who set the benchmark in the world of image making. Today we are speaking about a new image of classical musicians. Especially when they are searching for new ways in classical music. Band Shoppe has performance attire for concert bands, orchestras, or choral performances to create a polished, professional look. Celestial music by Saariaho opens the program led by conductor Jonathon Heyward in his SLSO debut.

Orchestras such as the New York Philharmonic only started allowing women to wear trousers(!) for performances in 2018. A full outfit of clothes worn at the same time, especially of matching clothes.

Although it’s closed for a few weeks for some repairs, visit the website and social media channels of the National Blues Museum and celebrate the Blues genre as the foundation of all modern American music.

You’ll love our lace-covered gowns and dresses edged with ruffles. We even have formal pantsuits that are elegant and comfortable. All of our dresses are appropriate for performance wear, so you don’t have to worry about breaking the dress code. The white tie and tails combo originated in the 19th century, as dress codes of the time dictated that a tailcoat with white tie must only be worn for formal evenings.
LGBTQ+ composers in classical music history that you probably already know
The overall look should complement the music, not distract from it, and communicate a level of seriousness that does not compete for center stage. That is why Band Shoppe has selected only the most versatile pieces to help your group members look classy and put together. The Times newspaper reported on the move from the BBC Symphony in 2003, with Arts reporter, Jack Malvern, describing the replacement black suits as “a ‘smooth jazz’ look”. Historically, the orchestra’s attire has reflected the audience of the day. In fashion terms, ensemble is usually referred to an outfit complete with accessories, jewellery etc. In fashion, a silhouette is essentially the basic shape or outline of an outfit.

If multiple garments are ordered at the same time, Satin Stitches guarantees a color match. Satin Stitches offers no guarantee for dye lots to match on orders placed separately. It's normal to have some apprehension over the upcoming performance, but you shouldn't let your clothing be one of them.
Soloists, concert musicians, and choir members need to look great in the spotlight! Band Shoppe's formal wear fits those required dress codes with a beautiful selection of formal dresses and concert attire. A solid black belt or solid black under shirt may be added if needed. Ladies have a second option and are asked to wear a solid black, short or long sleeve, full-length dress with solid black tights. This gives each ensemble a professional look on stage while also giving flexibility and multiple options for students’ individual needs, using formal clothing that can work for other occasions and functions. The second type of orchestra attire is "pit wear." When members of an orchestra are in a pit, such as for an opera or musical, they are not as visible to the audience.
The ideas of a society once anchored by the white tie and tails power structure are no longer acceptable. Yet the highest of high-class events still required men to wear white tie and tails. The orchestra is one of the last institutions to thrive on pomp, circumstance, and old-world style. And while Philadelphia is among the fashion trailblazers in the orchestra world, it’s not alone.
