Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestra
Immediately preceding the beginning of the new season, auditions are held to fill any vacancies existing in the orchestra. Depending upon the needs of the orchestra, students may audition after the season has begun. Students are asked to play a solo and scales; sight-reading is also required. This is a great opportunity for middle school and high school musicians who are looking for a real challenge. Some current and former Bristol Grove students are actively involved with this group. We highly recommend MYSO for any advancing band students. http://www.mysomusic.org/ |
 Screen Actors Academy is now accepting new students. This is a new acting school in the area that offers acting lessons to students of all ages who want to improve their acting and vocal skills. We highly recommend them. www.screenactorsacademy.com |
