Tucson Symphony Orchestra Band and Orchestra Clinics & Workshops are designed for middle and high school music programs. TSO musicians and ensembles work with band and orchestra directors to present a program that caters to the needs and abilities of their students. A typical 1.5-hour session will include a performance for the students, a question and answer session, and instruction on areas of universal need; i.e. warming-up, effective practicing, playing within an ensemble, tuning, etc. Sessions may also include sectionals or feedback for the entire band/orchestra, at the preference of the music director. TSO ensembles available for workshops include the String Quartet, String Quintet, Brass Quintet, Wind Quintet, and Percussion Ensemble. Individual instrumentalists may also be available upon request.
These programs offer a considerable amount of flexibility for music educators and can be structured to best meet your students’ needs as musicians. If you have questions about what might be possible, please reach out to the TSO education team.
Clinics and workshops are scheduled throughout the school year, but space is limited and reservations are fulfilled on a first come, first served basis. Please consider reaching out early!
