Eugene Junior Symphony
Eugene Junior Orchestra, a full symphonic ensemble, presents its own series of concerts and at the same time functions as a training group for the Eugene Youth Symphony. The group is conducted by David Chinburg. Membership is open by annual audition in the spring to all qualified musicians. Most members of the EJO are in grades 6-10.
Junior Orchestra rehearsals are held Monday evenings at Roosevelt Middle School from 6:45 to 8:45 pm. The Junior Orchestra participation fee is $420. Assistance with the participation fee is available. Auditions are held annually in the spring and fall.
Important policy information! All members of the Junior Orchestra are expected to play the instrument they play in their Arts Umbrella ensemble in a band or orchestra at their school. School band and orchestra teachers will be contacted to verify participation in a school group. A very limited number of waiver options are available regarding this policy. Also, please make sure you understand the commitment you are making, as attendance requirements will be strictly enforced. Please call Arts Umbrella at 484-0473 if you have any questions regarding these policies.
