String Chamber Orchestra

Keep your instruments tuned up and get a head start on your return to orchestra in the fall! This summer orchestra experience is an opportunity to play music with your classmates and other orchestra students in the district.

Through fun, full-string-orchestra pieces, we will refresh the skills you learned in 4th grade and get your fingers, instruments and bows ready for the new techniques and skills to come in 5th grade. The Beginning Summer Chamber Orchestra is specifically targeted toward Minnetonka orchestra students who have completed 4th grade orchestra and are registered for 5th grade orchestra this fall. However, any beginning string student who has been playing their instrument for one year is welcome to join.

Please come prepared on the first day with: your instrument, bow, and necessary accessories. Please also set aside time to practice at home during that week. Students must attend all four sessions of this performance-based program. The final performance will be on the last day at 3 p.m.
