MISSION
The Orchestra Now (TON) is a unique pre-professional orchestra and master's degree program designed to prepare musicians for the challenges facing the modern symphony orchestra. Musicians receive two or three years of advanced orchestral training and take graduate-level courses in orchestral and curatorial studies.

In TON, you will be part of an ensemble of forward-thinking, exceptional musicians who intend to redefine what it means to be an orchestra.
