Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra

Who Is The Concertmaster, and What Does He Do? Print E-mail

The concertmaster sits in the first chair of the first violins. In the case of the Evansville Philharmonic Orchestra, his name is Gared Crawford.

The concertmaster acts as leader of that section, but also plays a leadership role with orchestra as a whole. He is also the last orchestra musician to enter the stage before a concert, and cues the oboe to tune the orchestra.
