LET YOUR CHILD TO UNLOCK THE
MAGIC OF MUSIC WITH
VALLEY YOUTH SYMPHONIES
Youth symphonies provide young musicians with the opportunity to perform orchestral music in a group setting, gaining valuable experience and
training under the guidance of professional conductors and coaches. They often function similarly to professional orchestras, rehearsing regularly and performing concerts for the public. They may perform a wide range of repertoire, from classical masterpieces to contemporary compositions. Participation in a youth symphony can be an enriching experience for young musicians, offering them the chance to develop their musical skills, build friendships with fellow musicians, and cultivate a deeper appreciation for orchestral music.
MYS Mission
To educate young instrumental musicians in the art of performance to develop character, discipline, leadership, cultural awareness, and a strong commitment to excellence; enabling MYS to contribute to the Valley of the Sun's musical heritage and create a higher level of appreciation for the performing arts.
East Valley Youth Symphony, Inc. was founded in 2006 by a group of conductors and music lovers who saw the need for advanced students to use their musical skills in a setting that would both challenge and enhance their abilities. The organization consists of two strings-only orchestras, one symphony orchestra, and a preparatory winds group, which strives to give less experienced winds players a path to the symphony orchestra.
PYSO exists to Expand Horizons Through Music and develop the next generation of Artists, Patrons and Leaders.
In 1947, a forward-thinking group formed the Phoenix Symphony Guild with the purpose to create and fund The Phoenix Symphony. Five years later, this same group began the Youth Orchestra in order to train young musicians for The Phoenix Symphony.
