Youth Orchestra

Choose one:

Youth Orchestra is for young musicians who have mastered the basics of their instrument and are ready to play as an ensemble.

We expect students to have mastered basic posture, bow and instrument hold, and at least G and D major scales.

Students should also be ready to join a 75 minute rehearsal and pay attention for the duration, though there will be a short break in the middle.

FAQ

Who is this ensemble for? Students with the required prequisite courses from the PCYO (beginner & 2 years intermediate) or students with at least 1 year of 5 day per week classes or students with at least 1 year of focused private lessons. Students must be ready to join classes with primarily middle school students. High school students are likely ready to join the Sequim Community Orchestra instead.
Should I have private lessons along with these classes? Yes. Although it is not required, we strongly encourage students to meet a second time per week with a teacher for one-on-one instruction. Private lessons are arranged directly with the teacher outside of these courses.
Where are these group courses located? Both Port Angeles and Sequim will offer a "youth orchestra" ensemble.
