The New York Youth Symphony (NYYS) is one of the most awarded youth programs of its kind in the country, recognized for its innovative, educational programs for talented young musicians.
Founded in 1963 as an orchestra to showcase the metropolitan area’s most gifted musicians ages 10-22, it has since expanded to encompass programs in chamber music, conducting, composition, jazz, musical theater songwriting and its newest orchestra, Crescendo. The NYYS has performed at world-class venues including Carnegie Hall and Jazz at Lincoln Center. And through its commissioning program, First Music, the organization has commissioned more than 170 works from young composers since 1984.
Admission to the concert is free. Donations are always appreciated.
