| The purpose of the orchestra is to provide a place for musicians to learn all the basics of performing and musicianship, both in the traditional manner (learning by ear) and using sheet music. The graduated parts allow musicians of various ability levels to play together in harmony.

If you are not familiar with the Ensemble, take a look at the videos from the April 2012 performance to see what it's all about. You'll see that the Ensemble is made up of people of all ages and abilities playing a variety of acoustic instruments.
