The day program I work at recently built a small amphitheater at our main campus. We are looking for volunteer musicians to offer music in this space during the day.
The schedule is pretty open as to when they could perform. We are also very open to whatever kind of music they want to provide, granted it's appropriate. It could basically be anytime between 9am and 3:15 pm. The audience would mainly consist of adults with developmental disabilities.

Macaroni Grill in Rosedale Center (St. Paul) is looking for opera singers to perform in the restaurant. They are looking for talented, outgoing people to come make the guest's day.

Qualifications: Excellent voice projection and ability to work in other positions (host staff, busser, server, etc.)

Offering: Competitive pay, flexible schedules and excellent benefits

A great opportunity for college students because the shifts are short 2-4 hours and the schedule is really flexible.

To schedule an audition, call 651-633-2148.

Looking for someone to give guitar lessons to my 11-year old son. Last year he played trumpet in school, so he has basic understanding of notes and music. I would prefer to have lessons at our house in Rosemount (Southeast suburb of St. Paul). Right now open for the day and time (after school or weekends until summer break, then more flexibility). Please contact me if interested.

Band director seeks instrumental tutors to teach private lessons at Rogers High School on weekdays (from 2:45pm).

Looking for instruction on the following instruments:
Brass (Trumpet, French Horn, Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba)
Mallets
Flute
Bassoon
Oboe

Rooms are rented out through community education for $28 per hour (I believe you can do a half charge for 30 minutes). I have told the students to expect $30 per half hour lesson, $20 for a group of 2 and $15 for a group of 3 or more.

I believe there is good potential for studio growth for those who decide to tutor at the school.

The Roseville Big Band (www.rosevillebigband.org) is looking for a guitarist. None of their guitar subs are in a position to play regularly with the band, so they hope to expand the call list and perhaps find someone to add to the roster.

They recently lost their lead trombonist. For now, the bass trombonist is trying lead. Roseville Big Band would like to find a replacement bass trombonist to be a full-time section member. Another alternative would be to fill the lead trombone spot.

This is a community-level (i.e., non-paid) jazz band.

The web site above is a good reference of the repertoire we perform, as is this YouTube play list: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2522105169C281D6&feature=view_all
