Local Orchestras
In addition to the more well-known orchestras in the Puget Sound region, there are many smaller community orchestras and ensembles. Young people are always welcome to attend orchestra concerts and may be offered discount tickets. Please contact the individual organizations for further information. Email Henry to add your group to this list.
If you are new to orchestra playing, we recommend reading “6 Tips for Joining an Orchestra as an Amateur Musician” from Strings Magazine.

Customer Feedback . . .
"Hands down best service. Made an appointment for repair and Julie met us in front to look at a broken part. Then we waited in the car while Henry took a look at the violin and gave us a new chin rest. All was done within 10 minutes. Super covid safe and always excellent service." - J. Huang
