For a special President's Day concert, Hawaiʻi Youth Symphony's top orchestra, Youth Symphony I, returns to Maui to again perform free for the community with special guests Keola and Moanalani Beamer. 

They will be led under the direction of Maestro Joseph Stepec, the Director of Orchestras at UH Mānoa and conducts frequently with the Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra.
Youth Symphony I is composed of students, grades 9-12, from 15 public, home, and independent schools. Youth Symphony I is among the finest youth symphonies in the country, and has been recognized on From The Top, a nationally-broadcast public radio show, by Midori's Orchestral Residencies Program, and was a finalist in the Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards. With a mission to foster fun and creative experiences that inspire a deep appreciation for music and lifelong relationships within the culture of our islands, Hawaiʻi Youth Symphony annually serves more than 700 students ages 7-18, brought together from over 100 schools statewide.

HYS envisions a Hawaiʻi where music is a right; a Hawaiʻi where any interested youth can learn an instrument and play in an ensemble, regardless of geographic or financial barriers.
