Additional information:
Due to the large number of students, there are now 7 different levels of orchestra. Auditions are held once a year in April for placement the following school year. Only those who move to BDJH after the audition date will be allowed to audition after the deadline. Audition music is grouped the following way: Honor and Sinfonia candidates prepare the same music, Lyrica and Philharmonic candidates prepare the same music, and Camerata and Arietta candidates prepare the music for the particular orchestra they wish to be considered for. Review the audition requirements found in the document section of this webisite for a list of skills needed for each orchestra. There is no audition for FYO (beginning students).
