Students who receive an All-State recommendation (top half of the Western Massachusetts Festival) will be allowed to audition for the Massachusetts All-State Band / Orchestra in January of each school year.

Students who were accepted into Massachusetts All-State may apply for this biennial festival of students made up of 11 states from the US eastern seaboard.

Students who were part of Massachusetts All-State may audition for the All-National Ensembles made up of students from around the United States.

There are youth ensembles at the University of Hartford from bands and orchestra to instrument specific ensembles.

A comprehensive youth orchestra program from students all around New England. 

One of our region’s finest youth music schools. Everything from lessons, chamber ensembles, youth wind ensembles and youth orchestras.
