String Orchestra and Symphonic Band
Orchestra offers the opportunity for string players to study and perform music of many styles, musical periods, and to develop technique. Symphonic Band introduces the more qualified instrumentalist to advanced and challenging band literature of several styles and musical periods. The String Orchestra and Symphonic Band perform for several school and community activities throughout the year and offer a wide range of musical and social activities. The preparation process is the important component of the program, in that the performance of each student in the instrumental class is critically important to, and affects the performance of, every other student in the class. Students must have prior experience on a string orchestra, woodwind, brass or percussion instrument.
The String Orchestra and Symphonic Band are led by Music Director Rick Meyer.
