Our area is home to many orchestral groups of all levels, from elementary-aged youth groups to the NSO. Doc performs with the Washington Bach Consort, dozens of our students perform with the various AYPO orchestras, and several of our sectionals instructors perform with the Fairfax Symphony Orchestra. Doc also teaches at Patrick Henry College in Purcellville, and is proud to showcase the PHC Chamber Orchestra at several concerts each year. Student tickets are often available at discounted rates at many area halls, and are free at AYPO concerts!
