On October 12, 2014, the Overture Strings, Prelude, Philharmonia and Symphonic orchestras of the Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra presented their season opener concert. Rookie and returning students braved the big theater at the Bob Carr to a crowd of almost 800. We would like to thank all of our members for their hard work so far this season and congratulate them on a fantastic concert.
This concert also premeired our new FYSO merchandise, which is available for purchase online at https://squareup.com/market/fsyo, as well as at our performances.
Congratulations to our newest conductor, Dr. Mauricio Cespedes, for a wonderful job in his first concert leading the Prelude orchestra.
Special thanks to Orange TV for filming our concert and Yum Yum Cupcakes for our delicious reception! We also would like to extend an extra thank you to our sponsors, OUC, the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs and the Florida Council on Arts and Culture, Darden Restaurant Foundation, Universal Orlando Foundation, The Central Florida Foundation and United Arts of Central Florida.
