Cascade Youth Symphony Orchestras are comprised of four Orchestras and an Overture Strings program. If you love music and would like to take your music to a new level we most likely have placement opportunities at just your level. Each year we are looking for String, Wind, Brass, and Percussion musicians for the coming season

Preparation for the (friendly) Cascade Youth Symphony Audition-
For your audition you should be prepared to play the following:
  • A major and a melodic minor scale (2-3 octaves) in any key you choose
  • A 3-5 minute solo of your choice (no accompanist)​
  • Sight reading (material will be provided for you at the audition)
 To receive your audition appointment, you will need to pay a NONREFUNDABLE $35 audition fee.

 For the younger string musician - No audition required
