Online auditions for cyberspace orchestra

A CYBERSPACE based orchestra is conducting online auditions to find the best players to appear at a music summit in Australia that will be live-streamed on the web.

The call for the YouTube Symphony Orchestra 2011 opened on Tuesday.

YouTube launched its orchestra project last year with a sold-out Carnegie Hall concert featuring more than 90 musicians from 30 countries, including a surgeon-violinist and a professional poker player-cellist.
