SCSBOA All-Southern & All-State Honor Orchestras
Students in grades 6–8 may audition for the 2027 SCSBOA All-Southern Honor Orchestras. Sixth graders may choose the Elementary or Middle School level; grades 7–8 audition at the Middle School level.
This is a significant commitment involving a recorded audition and, if selected, mandatory rehearsals and performances. Please review the dates, locations, fees, and audition requirements on the SCSBOA Honor Groups page. This is not a class requirement, it is an optional opportunity for musicians who would like to challenge themselves, further develop their skills, and perform with other accomplished student musicians from across Southern California.
If your student is interested, please complete this form ASAP. Completing the form gives us the information needed to open the student’s official audition portal.
Additionally, information the All-State Honor orchestras (held for a few days in Sacramento, is available below)
