In the OPACO Youth Orchestra Program students are a part of a unique, enriching, and friendly musical community of passionate young musicians and world-class professional artist-teachers from throughout the greater Portland/Vancouver metro area. Students foster their love of music by performing major orchestral repertoire in a meaningful, more one-on-one chamber orchestra/wind ensemble format; develop advanced musicianship by participating in small chamber ensembles with expert guidance from some of Portland's finest musicians; and acquire a broader understanding through the study of music theory and other performance opportunities as part of the experience. Financial aid is available.
