Students audition in early December for the three regions of New Jersey, and those accepted perform with their regional orchestra. Those students then audition for the All-State group. Those accepted to this elite ensemble meet for several rehearsals, and then perform at the New Jersey Teacher’s Convention in November of the following school year.
