Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra


With its debut in 1993, the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra became the first educational program of Pacific Symphony and is now one of three youth orchestras in the Pacific Symphony Youth Ensembles program. Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra gives an opportunity to young, talented musicians in the Orange County and Inland Empire areas to grow and be trained as orchestral musicians. Composed of youth in grades 9 through 12, members of PSYO are given the opportunity to work with the professional musicians of Pacific Symphony and are led by Roger Kalia, Associate Conductor of Pacific Symphony. PSYO currently performs its annual concert series in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts.
