  3. 5th Annual Sarah & Ernest Butler Texas Young Composers Concert


The Austin Symphony Orchestra and the Long Center for the Performing Arts will produce the 5th Annual Sarah & Ernest Butler Texas Young Composers Concert. This concert will take place on Wednesday, April 1 and will present the world premiere of new orchestral works composed by Texas students age 18 and under and performed by your Austin Symphony Orchestra!

“With so many qualified entries, we wanted to showcase more compositions,” stated ASO Executive Director Anthony Corroa. “It is very difficult for young composers to have their composition played by a professional orchestra. Many orchestras are not willing to take a chance on the new works and the young composers. It is our hope that the ASO’s Young Composers Competition and Texas Young Composers Concert will encourage young Texas composers and nurture future masterpieces.”

You don’t want to miss this fantastic performance showcasing Texas’ talented youth. Each composer’s composition is up to seven minutes in length. Before each piece, a video by the composer will inform the audience on their composition.

Bring your friends, family, co-workers, for a special evening of music composed by some of the most talented youths in Texas! Tickets for the Texas Young Composers Concert are available now at the Austin Symphony Box Office, (512) 476-6064. Prices are $20 per adult and $8 per child.
