The Colorado Springs Youth Symphony Association enriches the Pikes Peak region through inspiring performances that foster a lifelong appreciation for music.

We provide young musicians with a positive, challenging, and supportive environment where they build confidence, discipline, teamwork, leadership, and friendships that extend far beyond the concert stage.

Our students demonstrate what young people can accomplish through dedication and excellence, creating a sense of pride while inspiring younger musicians to follow in their footsteps.

Through the guidance of exceptional conductors, coaches, and mentors, students learn from experienced musicians who encourage both artistic achievement and personal growth.

Our concerts and events strengthen the local arts community, welcome thousands of audience members each season, and contribute to the cultural vitality of Colorado Springs.

By investing in young musicians today, we strengthen the cultural vitality of Colorado Springs, inspire future generations, and help create a community where creativity, education, and the arts - qualities that attract families, businesses, and future generations.

Most importantly, we inspire a lifelong love of music, helping students become confident performers, engaged citizens, and future leaders who will continue to enrich our community for years to come.
