InterSchool Orchestras of New York information


The InterSchool Orchestras of New York (ISO) was founded in 1972 by Annabelle F. Prager as a response to the limited opportunities for school children in both public and private schools to play in an orchestra. It has since grown to include three beginning orchestras, an intermediate band, two intermediate orchestras, a symphonic band, and an advanced orchestra. An essential part of its mission is that no child ever be turned away because of lack of financial resources; 50% of its students receive some financial aid,[1] including all members of the top orchestra. Its music director for much of its history was Jonathan Strasser.

In October 2020, ISO announced its orchestras will join the programs of the Third Street Music School.[2]

ISO was recognized by the League of American Orchestras with the 2004 Bank of America Award for excellence in orchestra education.
