Dr. Teresa Metzger Howe, Music Director for the Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra, is excited to announce that the theme for BYSO this season is "A Celebration of the Symphony." All the BYSO orchestras plan to feature at least one composition from that all-important art form in each of their concerts. The Youth Symphony, BYSO's flagship orchestra, will be performing Mike Wofford'sTapestry 39(with BYSO Flute Orchestra), Youth Symphony Wind Ensemble (To Be Announced), Amy Beach's Symphony No. 2 in keeping with the theme.
The Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra is a non-profit organization established to provide a positive and stimulating musical environment for students. BYSO uniquely complements and builds upon both school music programs and private instruction. BYSO encourages the development of musical skills and self-confidence, as participants in all ensembles rehearse orchestral literature which appropriately challenges their skills. For over 48 years our program has provided instrumental music experience to match the ability levels of talented youth from early elementary grades through their college years.
