Monday, June 3. The Northwestern University School of Music Score Order performance seminars expand music lovers' understanding of how an orchestra's many musicians can produce a unified sound. Focusing on individual instruments, the two-hour sessions feature performances by alumni and other guests that offer exposure to varied repertoire. The last session on June 3 will focus on the band and orchestra and will be led by Stephen G. Peterson and Victor Yampolsky. They catapulted onto Israeli music scene when they appeared at the Red Sea International Jazz Festival in Eliat in 1990.
