Join Saskatoon Youth Orchestra members as they play different instruments showcasing various folk music from around the world. After the set, audience members will have the opportunity to handle the various instruments up close and try them out.
The Saskatoon Youth Orchestra (SYO) has been offering young musicians the chance to have fun, make friends and improve their playing skills since 1958. The SYO has garnered numerous awards and has travelled to workshops across Canada. It is an important source of the city’s classical musicians, with many SYO alumni going on to share their talent as professional performers, educators, and leaders in the community. Michael Swan, concertmaster of the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra, is among their alumni.
