Practice Music


This page contains MP3 files of current music for the Jr High Orchestras. These files have been synthesized on computer from the same music used by the students and can be used to get a general idea of what the piece sounds like. For each piece there is a version with all sections of the orchestra balanced and versions with one of the sections highlighted so that the student can clearly hear their part.

It is recommended that you download the MP3 files and play them on your computer with an MP3 player (for example with Media Player on Windows). To download the file, right click on the desired file and choose “Save Link as” (or similar wording depending on your browser) and save the file in your desired location.
