Hear what parents say about Orchestra!
We are not a family that is artistically inclined and don't even listen to music but so I was surprised when my daughter expressed desire to join the orchestra and I am glad that she did. She has had such a good time learning how to read notes, she practices at home (it was painful to hear her play violin in the beginning but it got better lol) and we love fiddle fests!! She has grown so much and formed such close friendships with her orchestra mates. -5th Grade Orchestra Parent
