ORCHESTRA

The Orchestra class offers instruction on violin, viola, cello, and double bass instruments with a focus on the skills necessary for long-term success. Fundamentals stressed include proper posture and playing position, development of characteristic tone quality and training in music literacy. This class provides the opportunity for string players to advance their playing abilities through ensemble experience, individual or small-group lessons, and allows the opportunity for students to pursue additional performing experiences outside the classroom setting. CCS standards align both the state and the National Standards of Music.
