Orchestras of Excellence

The Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestras of Atlanta is a community-based youth orchestra founded to provide young students with an opportunity to continue their music education in a full orchestra setting, work directly with professional musicians, and perform in public.

The Metropolitan Youth Symphony Orchestras of Atlanta (MYSO) begins its nineteenth successful year of providing orchestral education and performance of great orchestral literature to talented string, wind, brass and percussion students from the metropolitan Atlanta area.

The primary goal of MYSO of Atlanta is to further the music education and experiences of its members. Repertoire is specifically chosen by our conductors to challenge and broaden the scope of performance experience for our musicians.

MYSO of Atlanta is committed to developing the educational opportunities of Atlanta's talented musicians. As such, we continue to expand the music programs available to the MYSO student. We offer public performances, sectional coaching, chamber music ensemble training, and performance, scholarship awards for continuing music education, and travel opportunities.

Travel has become an exciting and integral part of our musical education program. MYSO receives invitations to perform in many exciting venues beyond the Atlanta area. MYSO's Symphony Orchestra was invited to perform in the Youth Performance series at Carnegie Hall and on April 14, 2002 played to a standing ovation! What an experience for the musicians--to play in the same hall as Tchaikovsky and other illustrious musicians.

While exact travel details have not been finalized, MYSO members can expect to be on the road performing and enjoying other cultures and places again this year! Recent trips have taken MYSO members to the Big Apple, the Midwest Band Orchestra Clinic in Chicago, IL, GMEA functions in Savannah, GA, Piccolo Spoletto in Charleston, SC, to the Super Bowl Halftime Show during Super Bowl XXXIV in Atlanta, Beijing, Nanjing, and Shanghai China.
