In the spring of 1982, a group of interested parents and music educators from the East Valley area began exploring the potential for developing a youth orchestra.  Their goal was to provide a challenging program of excellence in orchestral music for young school musicians through ninth grade. Now in our 23rd season, Metropolitan Youth Symphony has 280 members divided, by ability, into 3 string orchestras and one full symphony orchestra.
