Metropolitan Youth Orchestras of Central Alabama (MYOCA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation dedicated to making music instruction and ensemble playing available to all, thereby developing character and sense of community. Scrollworks is our music education program founded in 2008 which currently has over 190 students participating. We offer opportunities tailored for the performance level and maturity of musicians ages 5 to 18, from free lessons (after a $25 registration fee) on many instruments, to an evolving family of ensembles currently including two levels of choir, a jazz ensemble, a drum circle, two levels of wind and string ensembles and youth orchestra.

Young musicians who currently play an orchestral instrument can join Scrollworks at any time. Auditions for students who already play an instrument are by appointment. All classes offered at Scrollworks are designed to help students develop fundamentals of music in a positive, structured, yet fun atmosphere. If you are looking to further your musical development, Scrollworks also offers private lessons on violin, viola, cello, voice, guitar, trumpet and piano through the Academy. These lessons have a per lesson fee based on income and family size on a sliding scale of $5-$25. Young people of diverse racial, social, cultural, and economic backgrounds are encouraged to explore and cultivate their musical talent and contribute to Alabama's musical culture.
