Acoustic Roots Orchestra 2024

Student Musicians Grades 3 - 12

 

The Acoustic Roots Orchestra is a great opportunity for school-aged musicians to play music together. This group combines all the kids who already play in the full ensemble with beginners who learn a smaller repertoire of music. ARO members learn the music through their school programs, private music teachers and/or on their own and are invited to join the full ensemble for certain rehearsals. Explore different roots genres including country, bluegrass, western swing, old-time, Cajun, Celtic rock and more!
