At 6:30pm in the lobby of the Performing Arts Center, the CYSO’s Jazz Orchestra will serenade the audience with a selection of both jazz and pop standards, that are sure to keep your feet tapping. Jazz is one of the great American art forms, which celebrates freedom of expression through the means of improvising.

The 7:30pm performance features CYSO’s Senior Flute Ensemble and the Symphony Orchestra, which are the most advanced ensembles. During this performance, student musicians have the opportunity to perform alongside some of the most talented performers and soloists on the international stage.

“These opportunities are unique and leaves our students with a lasting impression that inspires them to push their boundaries and strive to reach even higher,” said Julien Benichou, Music Director and Conductor of CYSO’s Symphony Orchestra. “All of our ensembles, led by some of the best pedagogues, amaze me with their talent and enthusiasm.”
