Summer 2026
Welcome to Cadet for the 2026-27 Season!
More information will be sent via email in September, including music links and part assignments (like violin 1 or violin 2). This spot will be where you find important information like seating auditions and other important details about rehearsal. Updates will be posted in September.
I look forward to seeing students at our first rehearsal on September 28!
Below are some frequently asked questions:
=====
What happens at retreat and why is it valuable to my student? At retreat, we have extended sectional time with our coaches (it’s also our last sectional for the quarter), and we have double full group rehearsal time. Just as importantly – we have time built in for social activities and team bonding!
What are seating auditions, and are are they required? Seating auditions are optional and take place during Week 5. Auditions are used to determine the following leadership positions: Concertmaster, Assistant Concertmaster, Principals and Assistant Principals for 2nd Violin, Viola and Cello. There is no makeup auditions in order to maintain fairness. If your child plans on being absent and you’d like to send a recording, please do so before the deadline. Please understand consideration is given towards in-person auditions due to the nature of playing live.
