Music Department

The Advanced Orchestra (Chamber Strings) is the top string ensemble at Torrey Pines High School.  Students perform a challenging repertory of classical and contemporary works at the collegiate level.  This ensemble includes our highest level string players and affords them an opportunity to hone their musicianship and technical skills.

 

The Advanced Orchestra has many performance opportunities throughout the year including concerts, school events and competitions.  The orchestra competes each year at the local SCSBOA Festival and has earned a trip to Regionals every year, where it consistently receives Unanimous Superior ratings in the Collegiate AA Category.

 

Students in this class have the opportunity to perform in chamber ensembles such as string quartets.  The orchestra also gets together occasionally with students from band to learn and perform works for full orchestra.

Enrollment in Advanced Orchestra is by audition only.
