Evergreen Philharmonic

The Evergreen Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1991 by district orchestra teacher Doug Longman. It is a full symphonic orchestra comprised of 80 honor students who are selected yearly by audition from Issaquah High, Liberty, and Skyline. The students attend daily orchestra classes at Issaquah and Skyline high schools and each Friday after school, the whole orchestra rehearses together. This group of talented musicians performs an ambitious and varied schedule of concerts during the year, including standard symphonic literature, musical theater, waltz music for dancing, and concerti. Evergreen Philharmonic has performed at Carnegie Hall, and has travelled and performed in London, Paris, Montreal, Quebec and Los Angeles.
