Common questions
How do I tell the orchestra I want to play in concert cycles this season?
Open Concert signups, choose a concert cycle, select Sign up, and choose Save signup. See Respond to a concert cycle.
Did my concert signup save?
After Save signup, the list shows your response on that cycle. Open the cycle again to review it, or choose Change signup to update it.
Why can I view a concert signup but not change it?
Your personnel manager may have closed member signups for that cycle, or the concert date may have passed. Your saved response and note remain visible. An admin can still correct a response.
What's the difference between Concert signups and Absences?
Concert signups capture whether you want to participate in a concert cycle this season — signing up adds you to the roster when you are eligible. Absences is for a specific rehearsal or concert you already know you will miss or arrive late to. See Absences.
What does Not sure mean on the signup form?
Not sure tells your personnel manager you are uncertain. Use it when you might want to participate but are not ready to choose Sign up or Decline.
Does signing up change my dues?
Signing up for a concert means you owe dues for that concert. See Dues.
Does signing up put me on the roster?
Yes. Signing up adds you to that concert's roster when you are eligible and not already listed. Personnel may adjust the roster later. Declining does not remove an existing placement.
