When Can My Child Audition for Vivance, Bridge, ViBravo and Chamber?
Students can audition for Vivace when they have completed the 5th grade book and also have "passed" one Vivace concert piece. It is highly recommended that they study with a private teacher when in Pre-ViBravo due to the music being so difficult. The group and it's members are held to a high standard of performing. If your child is interested in private lessons please contact Monica Holy or Mariana Wood.
Students can audition for ViBravo and Chamber once they have "passed" through all of the Vivace material.
