Preparatory Orchestra
This beginning level group is designed to encourage the early development of a student’s musical skills. Students in this group will have had at least one year of instruction. While having fun through making different musical sounds together, these future performers will gain strong and essential basics of performance. |

String Orchestra
This is our second level of orchestras, for students with mastery of the high and low second finger and are learning the other finger patterns. Most students in this group will have been playing for two to three years. While participating in this group, students will become stronger players in all finger patterns and more complex rhythms and will begin learning to shift into other positions. |
Adult Community Orchestra
Led by Hank Chang, the Denton Community Orchestra is an adult volunteer program for musicians in the community to get together and play fun music. As an off-shoot of the youth symphony, the orchestra gathers weekly to rehearse and performs 2-3 concerts each year, with many opportunities to mentor and perform with the members of the youth symphony. |
