Concert Dress Code
The purpose for the dress code is so the audience will stay focused on the music during the performance and won't be distracted by individuals in the ensembles or orchestras. The code has been made to create the best-looking and most uniform appearance at the lowest cost to families. Therefore, if a musician comes to a concert in inappropriate attire, he or she may be asked to change before being allowed on stage.
