Concert Orchestra

Concert Orchestra is the second orchestra level made up of mostly seventh and eighth grade students with at least one to two years of prior playing experience. Concert Orchestra meets every day as one class and participates in daily rehearsal as an ensemble with all instrument sections.  Along with strengthening and refining the fundamentals of string playing, students will focus on advancing instrumental technique, music literacy and artistic expression.

Private Lessons

Private lessons are recommended for any and all students in the orchestra program! We have an amazing staff of private lesson teachers that are available for pull-out lessons during your child's orchestra class, or for after-school lessons. Please visit our private lesson page to find contact information for our teachers. You can contact them directly to schedule trial lessons, discuss scheduling, and payment.
