Through the Solo & Ensemble experience, students learn the discipline of rehearsal, are challenged to advance their musical skills, perform in front of an audience and receive feedback on their performance.  Those that perform at the highest level (Class A) at a District Festival have the opportunity to advance to State Solo & Ensemble Festival.  Each year over 32,000 students (11,000+ events) qualify at district festivals to perform at State Solo & Ensemble festival making this event one of the largest of its kind in the nation.  These students represent the student talent and high quality of music programs in Wisconsin’s schools.
