Are you curious to hear what our String Ensembles have been up to this Fall? The VSO School of Music Holiday String Ensemble Concert will be premiering at 7:30pm PST on Saturday, December 19th, 2020. Visit our YouTube page to watch!
The VSO School of Music’s youth string ensembles meet weekly to rehearse a variety of music including specialized arrangements tailored to each group’s level.
Due to capacity restrictions in Pyatt Hall, 2020/2021 string ensembles will be different than in past years. Each ensemble will be limited to 16 players, and the number of ensembles will be determined by the number of successful applicants. Students who successfully audition will be grouped according to their relative skill levels by the adjudicators.
It is our hope that these smaller class sizes will allow students and instructors to stay safe through social distancing in the COVID era, rehearse effectively, and connect meaningfully through music.
