Music is unique in that it is considered a universal language. Music education has not been given the same distinction and has lost its place of importance over time. The New Apollo Youth Symphony Orchestra is not only dedicated to reshaping music education but making sure to give that opportunity to our young musicians of all backgrounds. Our goal is to create a community around the youth symphony that has a great understanding of music, that is diverse in as many ways as possible and ultimately sets each student within it up to successfully pursue any goal they strive for. This will be different, this is the future, this is the New Apollo.
