Our Orchestra Program

​The Lakeside HS Orchestra is comprised of three levels of classes; Sinfonia, Philharmonia and Camerata. Each orchestra is taught and led by Orchestra Director Tara Buonamici.

Students are challenged at every level to grow on their individual instruments as well as learn to perform as a team, mirroring the etiquette and conventions used by a professional orchestra. Yearly concerts, district competitions, and special performances allow students to expand their playing capability and become comfortable with performing.
