Robinson named conductor of Bend Pops Orchestra
Bend Pops Orchestra has announced Bend conductor and musician Eddy Robinson as its new
leader beginning with the 2021-2022 season.
Robinson works with students at Pilot Butte and Sky View middle schools, as well as Mountain
View High School. He co-conducts the Central Oregon Youth Orchestra, has participated many
school district events and festivals and teaches string students at Cascade School of Music. He also
plays bass with the Central Oregon Symphony and has joined Bend Pops for several concerts on
bass.
“Our announcement to our members about Eddy joining us was met with a lot of excitement.
Many of our members know Eddy from music circles here in Central Oregon and are happily antici-
pating getting back to rehearsals under his lead,” said Lisa Hakesley, chair of the Bend Pops Orchestra
Board of Directors.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the orchestra has been unable to rehearse or perform for the past
year. If conditions allow for a fall 2021 startup, Robinson will assume leadership of the group at that
time.
Musicians interested in joining Bend Pops Orchestra are invited to contact info@bendpops.org.
