The Harvard University Orchestra will open its one hundred and twenty-second concert season this evening with trials for new men at the Music Building between 8 and 9 o'clock. Those who cannot report tonight will have another opportunity on Wednesday evening from 7 to 9 o'clock.
Nicholas Slovimsky, a well known Boston conductor, composer, and pianist, who has been appointed to lead the orchestra again this year, will conduct the trials. All members of the University are invited to compete.
The Harvard Orchestra, known also as the Pierian Sodality, was founded in 1808, and is the oldest musical organization in the United States. It offers to Harvard men who play instruments used in the symphony orchestra an opportunity to participate in the performance of standard symphonic works.
Among the instruments played in the Pierian are violins, violas, violoncellos, basses, saxophones, clarinets, oboes, flutes, trombones, trumpets, horns and drums.
