Greetings and welcome to the 2024 – 2025 season for Cadet String Orchestra! This upcoming season, our ensemble will study and perform a variety of works from the standard repertoire, including works by living composers. Students are expected to bring their instrument (and bow!), music, and a pencil to every rehearsal. We look forward to our first rehearsal. Please look out for an email that will contain links to download music, including violin part assignments.
Andrew Kam, Cadet String Orchestra Conductor
Seating Auditions:
- auditions are optional
- in-person only during rehearsal on Monday, 10/23
- Seating auditions are intended to select Principal and Assistant Principal players. These musicians are the leaders in our orchestra and must demonstrate the highest level of individual musical skill, ensemble playing, and model excellent behavior during rehearsals and performances.
- Seat assignments following seating auditions is not a ranking! Auditions are also used to carefully determine the best proximity for each individual (i.e. if a student demonstrates strong ensemble skills, they may be particularly helpful when placed towards the last row in order to “reinforce” the section).
