Orchestral Instruments

Our string, wind, brass, and percussion students benefit from a comprehensive music curriculum delivered on campus and through our unique partnership with the New England Conservatory in Boston. Weekdays, students focus on chamber music and music classes including theory, history, and solfège. The on-campus curriculum is enhanced by innovative performance projects and weekly masterclasses with prominent guest artists. Students also attend NEC Preparatory School on Saturdays for private lessons and orchestra. Our program, offered in an inspiring creative environment, prepares graduates to thrive in a conservatory, university, or college setting.
