The WYSO is a three tiered program with a beginning level for those who have never played strings, an advanced level for those ready to audition and play with a mixed ensemble and a Chamber Ensemble class for students wanting to perform in a smaller setting to expand their skills. We are the only program in the area offering an orchestra ensemble experience for youth.

The TCO has a membership that is constantly changing and consists of string, brass, wind, and percussion players. Southeast Alabama, Southwestern Georgia and the Florida Panhandle are the areas from which we draw our members. Ages vary from elementary students to retirees. Musical abilities range from the novice instrumentalist to the professional musician. Many of our members are former high school musicians who are living proof that it is never too late to pick up that old instrument, or buy a new one, and start playing again. Orchestra members volunteer their time to rehearse, perform, and share their common love of music. Rehearsals are held on Thursdays from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the Dothan Cultural Arts Center (CAC), on 909 South Saint Andrews Street, Dothan, Al 36301.
