EQ 11: GTCYS = GO

Dear Friends,

GTCYS = The Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphonies
GO = Great Organization

GTCYS is a great organization.  I serves 750 students in 7 orchestras from all around the Twin Cites (Minneapolis and St. Paul) as well as out state students.  Their highest level orchestra is currently touring Spain, including an invitation to be part of the prestigious International Festival of Music and Dance at the Manuel de Falla Concert Hall in Granada.  You can follow the tour on Facebook (here).  
There are other great youth orchestras around the country even in the Twin Cities.  They are important organizations that I hope you will support.

 Thanks for reading and please comment,

    #1 Son played in the youth orchestra here. He preferred his youth jazz ensemble, but I enjoyed hearing the orchestra play. Support musicians, young and old! And middles too.

    We are getting a former GTCYS conductor at Blake MS next year. Apparently, he'll be a huge draw for new students who want to play with him again. Yay, Orchestra! I think Mac can start playing in 3rd grade.
