[All state or national orchestras]

In CO we could. However, by kid #2 the ps music teachers would let a kid audition at https://au.edubirdie.com/write-my-essay-australia, but then not pick the hs kids. We gave up after a few years. We also ran into a problem with having their "home" orchestra be the college orchestra (where my kids played--our ps only has band). In the end, we decided it wasn't worth it, though several of the girls enjoyed it. I heard Barber's Adagio for Strings the other day, and it brought me back when dd was Principal Second. Good times. 

It's not pleasant not to pass the audition.
