On behalf of the Board of Directors, I welcome you to the season finale concerts of what has been an epic season. Our students and artistic staff this season have been immersed in the exploration of music as a “time art.” This work has special significance as we celebrate the EYSO’s long history and contribution to music education excellence in this region. The EYSO began in 1976 as a small group of string players under the direction of Robert Hanson. Over the years, it has become one of the largest and oldest youth orchestras in the region, recognized nationally for its approach to music education that promotes curiosity, critical thinking and collaboration. Much of the credit for EYSO’s success goes to Executive Director Kathy Matthews and Artistic Director Randal Swiggum for their vision, leadership and diligent work to advance the mission of the organization. We celebrate 40 years today because of their dedication to nurture an amazing community of teachers and musicians. Leonardo da Vinci said “time abides long enough for those who make use of it.” The EYSO has spent its time wisely, and our alumni long remember the engaging musical experiences, friendships, and encouragement to pursue a life-long journey of creativity and growth. Your support of the EYSO allows us to continue this important work. Thank you!
