​All about strings...
Thank you for your interest in the Trace Orchestra Program! Orchestra is available to 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students only.  Students will learn about all the orchestra instruments the first week of class. They will then have the opportunity to choose which instrument they want to play. We do our best to give everyone their first choice, but it will depend on the number of instruments and sizes available.
Only students who participated in the Trace Orchestra last year are eligible for Intermediate Orchestra.  If your student has experience playing a string instrument and you would like to set up an audition with Mr. Finley, please email the Trace VPA Boosters at [email protected] and we will help facilitate the audition.

A $40 donation fee per student is suggested but not required to participate. Your donations go towards the wear and tear of instruments as well as music books and other teaching materials. All donations are tax deductible.
