Lighthouse Youth Orchestras

Sinfonia is made up of some of our second- and third-year strings students. This orchestra is the first step to moving up to the more advanced orchestras.

Philharmonia is made up of intermediate-advanced strings musicians who wish to be challenged a bit more. 

The Young Artists' Ensemble, also known as YAE, is our most advanced orchestra, and these players often are the group that perform with MountainTop Strings both locally and abroad. 

Arrowhead Arts Association is a not-for-profit 501(C)(3) corporation dedicated to enriching the quality of life of the residents, youth and visitors of the San Bernardino mountain communities by sponsoring and promoting quality musical performances and music education and scholarships for local youth from kindergarten through college.

Bear Valley Strings is the strings program, taught by Mrs. Sharon Rizzo, within the Bear Valley Unified School District. This program has grown to over 125 music students, and has introduced countless children to the wonders of playing an instrument.
