WE'RE BACK!!!
The CSUN Youth Orchestras will return this season. All three orchestras will be filling spots for
complete string sections. Information on how we are moving forward with woodwinds,
brass and percussion is included below.
The CSUN Youth Orchestras will abide by L.A. County Department of Health and campus
protocol throughout the season. We are happy to offer a slightly reduced tuition for this season
and we will not be charging for tickets for our first two performances of the year!
We will be starting on-campus rehearsals on the weekend of September 18 & 19.
RETURNING MEMBERS REMAINING IN CURRENT ENSEMBLE
If you plan on returning to the same ensemble that you were in last year or during the
pre-Covid season, all you need to do is to pay your season tuition and you have your spot back!
As added incentive, for this season, we have reduced tuition slightly from our pre-Covid rates.
Full season tuition will be $600 this year.
Our tuition link with payment options will go live on August 1st.
Woodwind and brass, please read below.
