We Are the Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra.
The Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra is a non-profit organization established to provide a positive and stimulating musical environment for students. BYSO uniquely complements and builds upon both school music programs and private instruction. BYSO encourages the development of musical skills and self-confidence, as participants in all ensembles rehearse orchestral literature which appropriately challenges their skills.
We have the right orchestra for YOU!
For over 43 years our program has provided instrumental music experience to match the ability levels of talented youth from early elementary grades through their college years.
Our season begins with the fall retreat. After auditions are completed and orchestra placements have been made, this retreat brings the students together to form friends and tackle the music.
Season Highlights this year will include five performances at Crossroads, a joint concert with the Columbia Choirs at our Magic of Mistletoe holiday concert at the Meydenbauer Center, and a second holiday concert at Carco Theatre.
You can visit our weekly rehearsals of any of our four divisions on Monday at Sammamish High School, 140th and Main St, Bellevue. BYSO conductors and staff treat students as the serious musicians they are, yet they also treat them as the fun "kids" they are, too. Our students come from over 20 cities, towns, and suburbs in King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties. They come from private, public, and home school environments. They come to make music. They come to make friends. They come to have fun!
