A new Wilmington Symphony Rockestra program will be offered starting Fall 2021!
Rockestra is open for high school students and advanced 7th/8th grade students. Auditions will be held in September 2021. The Rockestra will rehearse one night a week and will perform at UNCW's Kenan Auditorium. Rockestra will include accoustic instruments as well as instruments not normally used in a classical setting and that are focused on rock, pop, and funk music (i.e. electric guitar, electric bass, saxophone, piano and drumset). This new ensemble will help students learn more about classical music and how it can be combined with popular forms of music.
Rockestra is under the direction of Wilmington Symphony Junior Strings conductor, Lisa Gattuso.
Tuition for Rockestra is $75 per semester.
