PG Symphony Youth Orchestra

The PGSYO is a cooperative venture of the PG Symphony Orchestra and the PG Conservatory of Music to provide the youth of the city and surrounding communities the opportunity to experience the joy of making orchestral music, develop relationships with peers and develop as musicians.
