Auditions

Students in the Youth Orchestras come from the Fox Valley region and represent the best teaching and talent throughout the area. We are therefore proud to support orchestra and band instruction at all levels. The Youth Orchestras are open by auditions to Fox Valley area students in April of each year. Please phone our Youth Orchestras' Manager, Lynn Lichte (920) 968-0300 ext. 26.
