The Cincinnati String Academy Orchestral Program

Dr. Timothy Durbin and Trista Emmons, Directors

The Cincinnati String Academy Orchestral Program, housed in The Center for the Arts in Wyoming, was instituted in 1996 by Paul Bartel, former President of the (CFTA) Board of Directors. This program grew from the first Summer String Fling Orchestra Camp Program, which began in the summer of 1996.

The Center for the Arts, Wyoming is pleased to announce Dr. Timothy (Terry) Durbin and Trista Emmons as Directors of The Cincinnati String Academy Orchestral Program. The program provides talented string students with an opportunity to broaden their musical experience by performing challenging repertoire and enjoying the thrill of ensemble playing! Rehearsals begin the week of September 17, 2007. We look forward to seeing you at the Center!

Acceptance is determined by audition consisting of a prepared solo, scale and sight-reading.
