Overture: A Student Coalition

OVERTURE was created as an opportunity for enthusiastic High School and College students to further their artistic and professional development. Overture members expand their understanding of Arts Management and Orchestral Operations while being exposed to world-class symphonic music. Incentives for students include volunteer recognition, musical and professional development, hands-on-time with our orchestral musicians and guest artists, and much more. Overture is NOT reserved only for students of the arts; all high school or college students may join. The mission of Overture is to help students continue with their creative endeavors while gaining the knowledge and experiences necessary for navigating the field of the arts.
