ISO

Morningside Orchestra

The Morningside and ISO at Turtle Bay orchestras motivate young musicians to work together to make music. Repertoire ranges from age-appropriate original compositions to standard classical works arranged for young players. The Morningside and Turtle Bay orchestras provide a strong grounding in fundamental and necessary orchestral concepts in a community-oriented and goal-centered environment. Players should have started private lessons and possess basic skills, including the ability to read music. These ensembles prepare students for advancement and growth through each of the subsequent ISO ensembles. Registration fee, tuition, and an audition are required.
