Concert Orchestra

There are two Concert Orchestras made up of 9th grade students. In the auditioned Advanced Concert Orchestra, students perform grade 2-3 music and further develop skills in shifting, 2-octave scales, vibrato, increasing rhythmic complexity, and a higher standard of pitch accuracy. Fundamental technique is reviewed and reinforced in Advanced Concert Orchestra. In the non-auditioned Concert Orchestra, students perform grade 1-2 music and further develop skills in note reading, foundational rhythmic literacy, tone production, and mastery of basic technique.
