Our focus is pushing ourselves to a higher level, playing longer pieces, wider variety of musical styles, more opportunities for solos, and even more student independence.
Students participate in three concerts per year, a small ensemble project, top ensemble groups are eligible for performing at concerts, and performance at ASTA Regionals.
Students also have the opportunity to sign-up to play in our annual full orchestra project with Chamber Orchestra.
Students are also eligible for a field trip every year either in-state or out-of-state.
