CSYO
The Charlotte Symphony Youth Orchestra (CSYO) is our most advanced ensemble comprised mostly of high school students. This group performs advanced and professional level symphonic repertoire. CSYO performs 4 times a season at the Blumenthal Performing Arts Facilities as well as in the communities around Charlotte. Our students will focus on developing all the elements of professional musicianship by performing traditional and new works, as well as by collaborating with living composers and artists. By participating in this orchestra, Strings, Winds, and Brass musicians will develop the skills needed to transpose music and read in alternative clefs typically found on their orchestral instruments. Sectional opportunities with CSO musicians are offered on a regular basis. Members are selected through a competitive audition process held annually in the spring.
