Tehachapi Community Orchestra receives new bass

DateWednesday, September 7, 2011 at 04:10PM
Tehachapi Community Orchestra Concertmaster Gayel Pitchford demonstrates the new Kay bass — acquired with a grant from the Bakersfield Californian Foundation — to one of her aspiring bass students, Manuel Quintanilla, age 9. Quintanilla is a musically gifted student who has already become a member of the Tehachapi Strings Orchestra (the Community Orchestra's intermediate level teaching orchestra) and also plays old time fiddle tunes on his bass in fiddle contests!
 
The Tehachapi Community Orchestra is training a stable of aspiring young bass players and hope to become a Center for Excellence in Bass Playing. Each young bass player will get to use the new Kay bass when they are in high school and have auditioned for and been accepted into the Tehachapi Community Orchestra.
 
For more info on Orchestra events, see the Orchestra's website, www.tehachapiorchestra.com.
