School Programs

Engaging and educational, the PSO offers a variety of school programs geared towards students of all ages, from pre-K to college.

School day visits provide students with an opportunity to get up close and personal with PSO musicians. Students learn about orchestral instruments and how sound is produced among many other topics. These workshops are the first step to a lifelong relationship with music. 

Let us craft a musical experience for your school!
