Stravinsky's FIREBIRD and More Slated for Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra's 'Stories and Myths' Concert
Once Upon a time there was an awesome concert called "Stories and Myths," held by Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra (PSYO) to open their 2017-18 season of musical delights.
The story behind the outstanding PSYO, comprised of Southern California's most talented young symphonic musicians, grades 9-12, is impressive, entertaining and worth hearing-especially as they set off on this latest musical journey.
Each season, Assistant Conductor Roger Kalia designs an opening program that best demonstrates the orchestra's versatility and talent, as well as highlights the different sections of the orchestra.
The three "chapters" for this concert include: Berlioz's "Carnival Overture," Austin Wintory's "Journey Suite," featuring the outstanding young soprano, Chelsea Chaves, and the mythical marvel, Stravinsky's "Firebird."
Talent rules the stage for this diverse concert, which takes place Sunday, Nov. 12, at 7 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Thanks to the generosity of sponsors, this season's concerts are free to attend, but tickets are required.
To reserve a general admission seat, call the Symphony's box office at (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org.
