At the Phoenix Youth Symphony Orchestras (PYSO), we believe in the power of music to inspire, uplift, and transform lives. Our mission is to expand horizons through music, and to develop the next generation of artists, patrons, and leaders. We do this through exceptional ensemble training, meaningful performance opportunities, and active community engagement, all within a nurturing environment rooted in mutual respect and inclusivity.
Each season, hundreds of dedicated young musicians from across Arizona come together to grow not only as performers, but as confident, compassionate, and creative individuals. From Side-by-Side concerts with The Phoenix Symphony and collaborations with Ballet Arizona, to scholarship programs that bring music to SOUNDS Academy musicians from underserved communities, PYSO creates unforgettable experiences that foster personal growth and build lifelong skills.
Your support helps us provide high-caliber music education and performance experiences for students of all backgrounds, regardless of financial means. Together, we can ensure that every young musician has the opportunity to thrive, grow, and share their voice through music.
Join us in shaping the future, one note, one student, one concert at a time.
