The Santa Rosa Symphony Youth Orchestra and the Young People’s Chamber Orchestra present their Winter Concert on Sunday, March 4, 2012, at Sonoma Country Day School’s Jackson Theater. The performance, which begins at 3 p.m., features two winners of the Youth Orchestra Concerto Competition: Hannah Dyslin and Victoria Lam, both of Santa Rosa and both students at Maria Carillo High School.

The Youth Orchestra (YO) will perform: Fantaisie brillante on Bizet's Carmen (arranged for flute and orchestra by Borne) in which Dyslin will be featured flute soloist; Zigeunerweisen (Gypsy Airs) by Sarasate in which Lam will be featured violin soloist; and Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. Dr. Richard Loheyde is in his seventh year conducting the Youth Orchestra currently in its 54th season. YO is the most advanced of the SRS youth ensembles with 51 musicians ages 10 to 21 participating this year.

The Young People’s Chamber Orchestra (YPCO) is an accomplished string ensemble that performs without a conductor, and is directed by Dawn Dover. Established in 1998, YPCO has been featured as a guest on a New Century Chamber Orchestra performance and was a winner of the Berkeley Junior Bach Festival. Currently 19 musicians from 10 to 18 years old participate in this ensemble. YPCO will perform works by Corelli, Respighi, Vivaldi and Mendelssohn.
