With its sophisticated programming, performances in one of the world’s greatest concert halls, superb musical leadership under The Marica and Jan Vilcek Music Director Andrew J. Kim, new works commissioned of the nation’s best young composers, outstanding soloists, and professional-level attitude, the Grammy Award winning New York Youth Symphony Orchestra sets itself apart as one of the finest ensembles in the nation.
The orchestra released their first professional recording album on Avie Records during the Covid-19 pandemic featuring pianist Michelle Cann, which won the 2022 Grammy for Best Orchestral Performance. The album can streamed/purchased here.
