Open to public, private, and home-schooled students across Middle Tennessee, Ethos offers three Orchestral Ensembles for students with 2-12 years experience (for beginners or students with one year experience, check out our Ethos Music Academy). The Reading Orchestra is open without audition, designed to build fundamental technique, literacy, and ensemble-building skills. Open by audition, the Camerata Orchestra and Chamber Orchestra play standard orchestral repertoire for students with advancing skills. Contact Mrs. Cowan at acowan@ethosmusic.net or Mrs. Shaw at lshaw@ethosmusic.net for more information.
