HMS Symphonic at the 2008 Spring
Concert |
There is a cadet ensemble
for beginning string players, a concert
orchestra for intermediate students and a symphonic
orchestra for the more advanced. Students attend orchestra
class daily, perform at three evening concerts, and participate in two
judged events (one locally, one out-of-town). There are also
opportunities for members to perform individually and in ensembles. Students are expected to
practice daily. New students audition for
placement in an orchestra. Cadet and concert students may audition at the end of the second quarter
for movement to a higher orchestra. During the 2008-9 school year,
73 students are enrolled in orchestra.
