There are 2 sections of Strings: String Ensemble and String Orchestra. Both groups wear tuxedoes/black dress. String Ensemble is the higher-level group – placement is by audition. Symphonic Orchestra is the combined String Orchestra/ String Ensemble, with the addition of select Wind Ensemble members to complement the sound of the strings. Involvement with these groups also requires attendance at sectionals throughout the school year.
