Experience the future of music that is out of this world in this inspiring side-by-side concert, where the talented young musicians of the Youth Orchestra perform alongside the professionals of the Orchestra of the Southern Finger Lakes.

From the sweeping beauty of Copland’s Appalachian Spring to the bold adventure of Rey’s Theme by John Williams, this program blends tradition and imagination. Be among the first to hear a world premiere by composer Robert Dusek, and cheer on our Young Artist Competition winner, Ashley Park taking the spotlight with a dazzling concerto performance.

In honor of Music in Our Schools Month,* this concert is a powerful reminder of the importance of arts education and the joy of making music—together.
