JUNIOR STRING ORCHESTRA

The Junior String Orchestra (JSO) is comprised of 30-50 dedicated middle-school violin, viola, cello, and bass students across the Albuquerque area. The Junior String Orchestra learns and performs music written or arranged for string orchestra, while focusing on excellent playing technique, sight reading skills, and group ensemble skills.

WEEKLY REHEARSALS:  Saturdays 10:45am-12:45pm at the AYSP Facility.

CONCERTS:  The Junior String Orchestra gives two performances each season – a formal concert in December at an APS Performing Arts Center, and a formal concert in April or early May at Popejoy Hall. This performance, along with associated dress rehearsal, are mandatory for all members of the Junior String Orchestra.
