Minnetonka Community Education

Enjoy learning and performing band music with fellow middle school students. District Honor Band is open to middle school students who are currently enrolled in band classes in the District. Participation is based on an audition or teacher's recommendation from the middle of December 2023 through January 2024. Students who are accepted will rehearse for eight weeks. A public concert will take place on the last day of class in the MME Cafetorium.

Calling all second-year orchestra students! Join the Minnetonka Elementary Fiddlers and have fun learning traditional fiddle music. We will learn to play folk tunes, Irish reels, ballads and jigs as well as bluegrass and traditional country music. No audition is required.

Learn symphonic music and challenge yourself to the next level of performance as a member of the Minnetonka Philharmonic. Middle school level orchestra students may audition through their school orchestra teachers for this group in late September. Students will rehearse at MME on Friday mornings before school. Minnetonka Philharmonic will perform as a part of the Winter and Spring Orchestra Concerts at the Minnetonka High School (MHS) Arts Center and attend the Middle Level Orchestra Festival and Competition. Check with your orchestra teacher for an audition date and time. Once accepted into Minnetonka Philharmonic, please register here.
