Reminder: Sign Up for Orchestra with Mikhail Borisovsky, After-School

Posted on by

For beginners to expert players in K-8. 

The Old Town Academy orchestra program is designed to build on the basic Piano and note-reading skills students develop in the Kiwanis Music Lab in grades K-3, and will eventually allow OTA students to start working with the Mainly Mozart Festival teaching artists. Click here to download: Q1 Orchestra Sign-up Form.

Mr. Borisovsky is an accomplished violinist and pianist. Born in Kharkov, Ukraine, he grew up in San Diego and studied composition at UCSD. Mikhail founded the OTA Orchestra program last spring and has already demonstrated his gift for mentoring young musicians. His background encompasses both folk and classical music. You can hear a clip of his music (on violin with Kora- a 21-string bridge-harp from West Africa) here.

Orchestra with Mikhail will meet on Mondays, Wednesdays (new), and Thursdays from 3:30-5:00 in the Seminar-Recital room (Students do not need to attend all classes). Students will use their own violin or a rental violin (Contact Mikhail to learn more: mikhailborisovsky@gmail.com.

  • Other instruments: Student who already play other instruments– cello, viola, horn, flute, etc.– are welcome.
  • Repetoire: Most beginning students are sitting in with the more advanced students on their first or second day (playing a series of popular orchestral pieces like Starwars).
