EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS
The following will be expected of all orchestra members:
1. All instruments are to be in excellent playing condition. (Instruments must be natural wood finish.) If strings have not been replaced within the last year then they need to be changed. Please plan repairs and maintenance so that instruments are not in the shop at inopportune times, i.e. concerts or performances. Do not purchase an instrument without first contacting the orchestra director.
2. A black 3-ring binder with plastic sheet protectors. (Glare free kind)
3. Students are expected to have rosin, shoulder rests (violins/violas), rock stops (cellos/basses), music, pencils, and a full set of extra strings at all rehearsals (class periods). Shoulder rests are required for all violins and violas!
4. EVERY student must have his/her own music with them at EVERY class period, rehearsal, and performance. (Random checks will be done for grade).
5. Fingernails must be cut short enough at all times as not to effect playing quality.
