ai???Stroudsburg is the only high school in this county that has an orchestra program,ai??? said Ms. Lisa Rogers.

Chamber Orchestra is a special group. It is not a class, itai??i??s an extracurricular ensemble that students have to audition for in order to join. Between 20 and 30 people make the cuts each year. The group meets once a week for rehearsals to prepare for various concerts.

ai???I love being involved with people who care about music as much as I do,” said Jessica Hall, a bass player. “I also enjoy being able to learn and have fun at the same time.”

According to Rogers, Chamber Orchestra is a unique group.Ai??ai???I think this offers kids opportunities to excel in something they won’t be able to get anywhere else,ai??? she said.

If students are interested in trying out for next year, they should contact Ms. Rogers.
