Miss playing with your friends, and the sound of all the parts coming together? Join us for in-person youth ensemble play-ins. We’ll provide the music and the safely-distanced outdoor setting. You show up ready to play with friends and conductors Nic Zannoni and Mark Nelson.

The sessions will be organized by level. If this is your first time attending a youth ensemble event, please contact your teacher to confirm appropriate level. Please RSVP at least 10 days in advance. Students will receive music in advance and will be expected to practice so that you are ready to play with your musical friends!
