Welcome and thank you for your interest in the Everett Youth Symphony orchestras.
Everett Youth Symphony Orchestras is comprised of four skill-graded orchestras led by outstanding professional conductors and music educators. EYSO orchestras rehearse every Monday during the school year and present three public concerts throughout the season. EYSO provides exciting challenges and opportunities to every young musician from the novice to the very advanced.
Placement in a group is dependent on the musician's audition and the evaluation of the musician's capabilities by the conductors.
We have limited openings in the Youth orchestra for advanced Cello, Bassoon and French Horn musicians.
To schedule an appointment, contact our Auditions Coordinator at auditions@everettyouthsymphony.org.
