Title Sponsor: Publix Super Markets Charities Scott C. Gregg Founded in 1994, the Jacksonville Symphony Youth Orchestra (JSYO) enrolls close to 250 young musicians between the ages of 7 and 22. Students are admitted through competitive auditions and placed among six ensemble levels, plus chamber music, and presents four concerts each season. The JSYO has become one the best and most comprehensive youth orchestra programs in the Southeast. As music programs are scaled back in public schools, the JSYO has filled this void by offering quality orchestral instruction, guided by a team of professional conductors and coaches led by Scott Gregg. The Jacksonville Symphony Youth Orchestra (JSYO) is co-sponsored by Florida State College of Jacksonville and the Jacksonville Symphony Association. JSYO 2011-12 Season Ticket Package
The season culminates with a joint performance with the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra at the Major/Minor Concert, bringing together teachers and students on the stage. Winners of the JSYO Young Artists Competition have the honor of soloing at this concert. Participating in the JSYO teaches discipline and teamwork. Young musicians also learn the value of perseverance and gain self-confidence. The JSYO enriches the lives of these young musicians and has become an integral part of the cultural life of the First Coast community. 2011-2012 Publix Super Markets Charities JSYO Series Free Holiday Concert 2012 Spring Concert 2012 Young Artists Competition Finals Major/Minor Concert
