Music Scholars Education Program
Open, by audition, to high school freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors in the counties of Bucks, Montgomery, and Philadelphia. This program fosters a student's music education, gives them an opportunity to grow as young musicians, explore repertoire and performing opportunities they would not normally be exposed to, and allow for collaboration with the artistic staff and current members of MCCO. The Scholars Program is open to vocalists and string players.

I had a very enjoyable experience at MCCO. All the players were amazing and it was a great learning experience! Everyone was very nice and it was so fun to play all the concerts with them.
Also, our conductor is hilarious!

Being a Music Scholar with MCCO helped me realize my love of music and transformed my violin playing from "just practice" into an instrumental aspect of my life (sure, pun intended). Everyone is so welcoming, and I always look forward to every rehearsal (and am sad once the concert is over). I am so glad MCCO offers this Music Scholars opportunity and am so excited to continue with this orchestra in future years to come!

Being a music scholar with MCCO this year has been such an incredible experience. I cannot say enough about how great it is for a high school student like me to be able to rehearse among talented adult musicians. Everyone is so kind and encouraging, and the music we perform is of the highest quality. I have learned so much and would absolutely recommend to all who consider auditioning!
