Join the Monroe Summer Orchestra!

For this summer, our major concert will be on Sunday, July 26th at 3 PM at Masuk High School.

The Monroe Summer Orchestra is always looking for new members. Please use this page to get in contact with us. No auditions are necessary, although we may ask for clarification regarding a musician's experience. Check out our past programs to see the level of music that we perform. Musicians are expected to be able to play this level of music in the orchestra.

Note that we are not accepting pianists at this time.

Per the member code of conduct, please note that middle school-aged musicians are required to receive recommendations from their teachers which will be subject to review by the board in order to join the orchestra. All members are strongly advised to familiarize themselves with the code of conduct; parents of members under the age of 18 are requested to do so as well.

We are a community orchestra - this is not an educational opportunity, but a recreational one. That said, the MSO provides an environment for musicians to grow and challenge themselves, playing musical compositions just as composers intended them to.

Our musicians cover a wide age range, from middle school-aged all the way into retirement. A love of music and performing is what defines all of us.

As can be seen in this picture from our first-ever rehearsal, there are members of all ages in the Monroe Summer Orchestra.

Selecting an answer is required as middle school-aged musicians are only allowed to participate if a teacher fills out the appropriate recommendation form. We will request the contact information of a teacher upon getting in touch. The MSO Board will make a final decision on admittance based on the recommendation.

Instrument

If you play multiple instruments, please list all of them. If you do not play an instrument and are using this form to contact us for other purposes, please write 'None.'

If you play the flute, piccolo, tuba, English Horn, or trombone, we may not be able to incorporate you into the MSO for the concert in July of 2026, but we will keep you updated on if we can include you. If you play those instruments and another one, please indicate what your other instrument is.
