Del Sol Advanced Orchestra

About Our Program

The Advanced Orchestra class at Del Sol is the stepping stones needed to prepare students for their transition into Chamber. This course is designed for students who have developed skills beyond those outlined and described in the CCSD Advanced High School String curriculum. It includes further development of those skills necessary to become independent as musicians. The course emphasizes the place of string music in Western musical heritage, style development, articulation, dynamics, rhythmic patterns, tone, and music history. The importance of sustained group and individual effort is stressed. A progression of technical proficiency is expected.
