Auditions

Program Information

Flagler Youth Orchestra offers four levels of instruction/musical experience for string students. These include:

  • Vivace: Advanced
  • Allegro: Intermediate-Advanced
  • Andante: Intermediate
  • Adagio: Beginner

The strings program conducts auditions to place students in the orchestra level that will best serve them. Auditions are based on skills like posture/stance, bow hold, tone quality, rhythm, and more.
