AUDITION RESULTS 2026-2027

We are excited to release results for the next school year. Before you view the results, please keep the following in mind:
  1. Earning a spot in the same orchestra again does not indicate failure. In fact, even within each of our six string orchestras, there is quite a bit of variance from the “top” of each section to the “bottom.”
  2. At OTHS directors pour their hearts and souls into each orchestra, regardless of level, to create the strongest group of musicians possible. To that end, every orchestra at Tompkins is a great orchestra.
  3. This year, approximately 17% of students in orchestra earned a spot in the next orchestra up.
  4. Among freshmen:
                  23% made Phil/Cam, 
                  36% made Lyrica,
                  19% made Cambiata,
                  22% earned a spot in Sinfonietta or Sinfonia
