2021-22 Youth Orchestra
PLEASE NOTE: Beginning Thursday, March 3, masks will no longer be required for classes and programs, but participants are welcome to wear them if they choose to do so.
Prelude Strings
CYO’s entry-level string orchestra is the perfect fit for students just beginning their music education journey. Students learning a string instrument are invited to play along with their peers having 1-3 years experience. Rehearsals are from 6:30-7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays.
Brass Ensemble - NEW!
The CYO Brass Ensemble is our newest ensemble program and is an exclusive opportunity connecting elite instruction with more experienced brass youth musicians in the local area. The ensemble is directed by Andrew Fierova, a member of the Charlotte Symphony Orchestra and
horn instructor at Davidson College. Placement in the ensemble will be evaluated and determined by an audition. Rehearsals for the CYO Brass Ensemble will be held on Monday nights at Bailey Middle School from 5:30-7 p.m.
Space in each program is on a first come basis and is limited to the first 60 youth musicians enrolled in both orchestra programs. Tuition scholarships are available, so no youth musician will be turned away because of inability to pay. To register for the program or for more information, please contact please email
