Brookwood Orchestra consists of over 300 students, performing in six different ensembles: the Maroon Orchestra, Gold Orchestra, Concert Strings, Symphonic Strings, Philharmonic Orchestra, and Chamber Orchestra. Many of these students are also athletes and AP scholars but they all have a love for and commitment to orchestra and music-making.

The Brookwood High School Orchestra Program seeks to provide quality instruction for all students enrolled in the program. It is the directors’ goal to inspire, motivate, and engage students to excel as musicians, to become productive, responsible citizens, and to have a lifelong appreciation and enjoyment of music.
The Brookwood Orchestra Parents' Association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
