What to wear:
Orchestra students in the 5th (and 6th) Grade are asked to wear nice/dressy clothes when performing at concerts. If possible, it is best to avoid jeans, sneakers, and T-shirts or sweatshirts with logos on them. If wearing a skirt or dress, please also wear leggings underneath. Female cello players should also avoid shorter or form-fitting skirts, as they don't allow for correct cello posture.
