Northern Valley Youth Orchestras’ 16th season opens with a fall concert on Sunday, November 15th at 4:00 pm at the Empire Arts Center. The two NVYO student symphony orchestras will each perform an exciting variety of symphonic music by composers both living and historic, including familiar favorites, lesser-known masterpieces and brand new works. NVYO includes two performing symphonic orchestras: Symphony and Philharmonic. The 90+ string, wind, brass and percussion student musicians come from over a dozen regional cities and schools in Minnesota and North Dakota, including Grand Forks, Manvel, Grafton, Thompson, Reynolds, Minto, and Pembina, North Dakota; and East Grand Forks, Crookston, and Fisher MN, and includes several UND college mentor musicians. NVYO programs provide challenging symphonic technique and performance opportunities for young musicians aged 9 to 21, within a supportive setting. NVYO participants make music, make friends, and use their talents to make a difference in the community.
NVYO and its programming are supported in part by a number of generous grants including: the City of Grand Forks; the Neel Family Fund and Iseminger Fund for the Arts, via the Community Foundation of Grand Forks, East Grand Forks, and region; the North Dakota Council on the Arts, which receives funding from the state legislature and the National Endowment for the Arts; the Myra Foundation; and the Grand Forks Park District Foundation Ulland Fund. Additional support and assistance from donors and sponsors, dozens of area music teachers, and community venues, make the activities of this season possible. More info at nvyo.org
