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 with your classmates as well as 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 the 4th-grade year in 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! We have only four sessions with a concert on the final day, so please come prepared on the first day with all that you need to play: your instrument, bow, necessary accessories and time set aside to practice at home during that week. Students must attend all four sessions of this performance-based program. The final performance will be on Thursday, August 24 at 3 p.m. Instructor: Monica Hahn
