Music for the Next Generation
At Salem Orchestra, we are dedicated to fostering a vibrant community through educational outreach. As part of our commitment to student engagement, the Salem Orchestra Music Academy offers two exceptional programs: the Summer Music Academy, where students enhance their skills and perform alongside professional musicians, and the Jack Glantz Memorial Student Conducting Program, which provides high school students with a unique early opportunity to learn conducting techniques. Additionally, we offer discounted tickets for students to all our concerts. For more information on these programs, please follow the links below. You can also join our email list to receive updates.
