Welcome to Orchestra!
I am excited to have your child in orchestra class at Youree this year. Below is a list of things he/she will need, together with other important information. Please feel free to contact me at the email/phone number listed below.
Following is a list of things that your child will need to secure for class and home practice:
- Violins/Violas will need a shoulder rest (Cadenza Violins on Youree Drive) – I will let your child know what size he/she needs to purchase. These can be any style. If you do not purchase one at this time, your child may use a sponge (1 –2” thick).
- Cello/Bass – a rock stop (Cadenza violins on Youree Drive) – any style
- Rosin (Cadenza violins) – any style
There will also be a $20.00 orchestra fee.
Grading:
20 participation points per day
Announced playing tests
Mandatory evening concerts (200 each concert – usually Christmas and spring)
District Orchestra Festival (500 points- during school day)
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
