About Memphis Youth Symphony:
The Memphis Youth Symphony Program (MYSP) was formed by Maestro Vincent de Frank in 1966 under the umbrella of the Memphis Symphony Orchestra. In March 2006, MYSP legally separated from the Memphis Symphony and reorganized as a separate and distinct nonprofit organization.
The MYSP serves as the premiere youth symphony program in the Mid-South. MYSP consists of seven large ensembles, multiple chamber ensembles, and a student advisory council. All students (public, private, rural, faith-based, and home-schooled) are invited to audition. The result is a diverse mix of students that reflects the community's culture and complexion. The program engages 300 students annually, ages 6-19, from the tri-state area.
