Region II Information

Region II Region, All-County, and All-State Orchestras

1) Region Orchestra - 7th and 8th graders will be asked to audition for Region Orchestra. The audition occurs on the first Saturday of October. The audition is blind - meaning that the judges can hear the students play, but they cannot see the students. If a student has a successful audition, the student will perform in the Region Orchestra Event.

2) All-County Orchestra - 7th and 8th grader who did not make it into the Region Orchestra may try to audition for All-County Orchestra, an middle school-only event much like the Region Orchestra event, though it is only 1 day long. These auditions will be done virtually and due by early November.

3) All-State Orchestra: Those who succeeded in their Region auditions are allowed to continue on to compete at a state level. The auditions and event are always hosted in Columbia, SC as a middle ground for all the students that participate.
