Experience the New Jersey Youth Symphony in action during a week of open rehearsals, offering a behind-the-scenes look at our young musicians as they prepare for performance.
Sign up below for a behind-the-scenes look at any of our 15 ensembles. Meet our passionate artistic team and immerse yourself in a live rehearsal. This event is for young musicians in grades 2–11. Current students will only be allowed to visit an ensemble of a higher level.
You are welcome to bring your instrument and play along or observe. You will be seated next to a current student and can look on with their music. Unless otherwise indicated, all rehearsals take place at 570 Central Avenue, New Providence, NJ. Learn more about our ensembles online, HERE!
