We are proud to share that TEN of our Youth Orchestra Program students were accepted into All-Virginia Band, Chorus, and Orchestra this year! Congratulations are in order for the following students:
Isaiah Coles, RSYO tuba
Sylvie Dow, RSYO harp
Hayley Dunn, RSYO violin
Nisarg Shah, RSYO violin
Audrey Tang, YCO clarinet
Trip Taylor, RSYO clarinet
Fielding Teague, RSYO violin
Peize Wang, RSYO clarinet
Peter Yanovitch, RSYO double bass
Annie Yuan, RSYO violin
Qualifying for All-Virginia Band, Chorus, and Orchestra is not an easy task. To participate in All-Virginia, students must first audition for and be placed into both their district and regional orchestra, band, or chorus. Students who place into both of those ensembles are then eligible to audition for the All-Virginia event in April, competing against students from across the state for a limited number of seats. Students who successfully audition for this event represent the highest caliber of playing among high school musicians in Virginia. This level of accomplishment is not possible without years of practice, dedication, and support from students’ school and private music teachers.
Congratulations to Isaiah, Sylvie, Hayley, Nisarg, Audrey, Trip, Fielding, Peize, Peter, and Annie for their musical achievements! We are so proud of our young musicians and grateful to have them as members of our Youth Orchestra Program.
