Fred Kavli Theater

The California Young Artists Symphony presents the opening capstone concert of its sixth season with an unforgettable evening of music at the distinguished Kavli Theatre in Thousand Oaks. 
The program revolves around two monumental works: Elgar’s Concerto in b-minor and Prokofiev’s 5th
Symphony. Prokofiev’s 5th Symphony is considered to be one of his greatest and was written when he returned to Moscow during World War 2. Elgar’s Violin Concerto is one of the great masterworks of violin literature, written for legendary violinist Fritz Kreisler. The program opens with Elgar’s beautiful “Sospiri,” or “Sighs.”
The program is led by Maestro Alexander Tseitlin (Director of CYAS and Lyceum Oaks) and features the Grand Prize Winner of the 2026 California Young Artists Competition, violinist Ezra Shcolnik (Juilliard, Colburn). 
CYAS was launched in the fall of 2021 to the acclaim of audiences and artists nationwide. With musicians from institutions such as the Colburn Conservatory, the Thornton School of Music at USC, and the UCLA School of Music (among many others), CYAS forms an electrifying ensemble rich in energy and expression. Concerts are a unique experience for musicians and audiences alike. CYAS Alumni can be found in the London Philharmonic, Detroit Symphony, Naples Philharmonic, and beyond.
Join us for an electrifying presentation of some of the most exquisite music in all of music literature. Tickets on sale at www.cyasymphony.org.
