Students who have begun Suzuki Book 2 are invited to audition! Read more below about the Orchestra Audition.
The Music House Orchestra Program explores a large variety of repertoire, including Pop, Pop-Classical, selections from the Musical Theater Production for Pit Orchestra, and much more.
In orchestra class, you’ll hone your note reading and ensemble skills, and learn how to be part of a team.

What to Expect from the Orchestra Audition
The audition will function like a 15 minute lesson, rather than a test. An audition is a great experience, and preparation for a future of auditions (high school or otherwise!), interviews, performances, and more. We would love to provide our students with the preparation they need to go into (sometimes) scary situations by showing them that an audition doesn't have to be scary- it's just a learning experience!
Auditions are not required for Pre-Orchestra and Advanced Violin Ensemble.
Skill Requirements for Orchestra Auditions:
Play 3 scales of your choice
Perform a piece from Suzuki Book 2 or beyond
Complete a simple sight-reading exercise
Music House offers weekly String Ensemble classes, including Pre-Orchestra (Suzuki Book 1 - Minuet 1+), Orchestra (Suzuki Book 2+ - must audition), and Fiddle Ensemble (Minuet 1+) at West Rogers Park Studio! Register Today!
The main focus of our strings and orchestra program is on creating musical friendships, growing as a musician and sight reader, and learning how to play together as an ensemble. Just like learning a language, music is better learned when immersed in a community of other music-makers!
Music House highly recommends that all students in the Music House Strings & Orchestra Program are enrolled in Private Lessons.
