HOW DO I GET STARTED?

Step #2 Determine Which Group is Most Appropriate for You
Take a moment and visit our ensembles page. Think about the performance level of the ensembles and your skills set. *If after your audition, you are not placed in that ensemble. it is possible you will be offered a spot in an alternative ensemble.
