The following is a press release from an organization unaffiliated with Culture OC. The information provided has been written by the submitting organization and not by the writers at Culture OC. We include this on our site in the spirit of sharing information about the arts and culture community in Orange County.
The New Hope Orange County Orchestra is excited to announce the launch of a new season focused on empowering young musicians (ages nine and up) with a dynamic repertoire from Bach to Beyoncé. This initiative addresses the critical underrepresentation of minorities in orchestras, where roughly only 2.4% of musicians identify as Black or Latino.
Led by the highly respected conductor Dr. Charles Dickerson, the orchestra provides an inclusive and comprehensive musical education. Open to musicians of all skill levels, the free program requires no auditions, making it accessible to all aspiring young artists. The New Hope Orange County Orchestra offers a unique platform for artistic development, personal growth, and celebrating cultural identity.
The orchestra's mission is to broaden musical horizons while affirming cultural heritage, equipping young musicians with the skills, confidence, and leadership to foster systemic change and promote inclusivity in music.
We warmly invite you to an informative orientation presentation and registration event, where you'll learn more about the program and its opportunities:
