icon REHEARSALS

PCO rehearsals take place every Tuesday from 5:30-7:30pm at Trinity Episcopal Church (580 Forest Ave, Portland, Maine). During the summer we sometimes go outdoors to play at either Fort Allen Park (Eastern Promenade), Evergreen Cemetery, or Payson Park. A series of eight intensive rehearsals prepares each of our  concert performances. Please check out the PCO Member Handbook for information on musician expectations, sheet music, attendance, performance etiquette and membership dues.


icon MEMBER PROFILES

Members of PCO come from all walks of life and a wide variety of musical backgrounds. It provides a unique musical experience to those who are interested and ready for the challenges of playing great music with other musicians. Please spend a few moments meeting the people who make the PCO what it is.
