The MCS Orchestra is an inclusive program designed to accommodate beginning through advanced students. Students are given the opportunity to take in the joy and fun of making music together, to gain confidence performing with others, and experience how to play an important role as part of a group. Practice and performance pieces include a mixture of classical, contemporary, pop and jazz music. We invite musicians of all ages to join. Those with more experience may consider mentorship. Recommended for 4th grade and older. $175
