About

The Jackson Symphony is committed to providing quality educational opportunities for young musicians in West Tennessee. The Jackson Symphony Youth Orchestra challenges students to develop their musical skills to their fullest potential.

The Jackson Symphony Youth Orchestra will begin its 16th season in the fall of 2016 under the direction of James Weil. The orchestra will present three concerts and two side-by-side performances with The Jackson Symphony during the season. Entry into The Jackson Symphony Youth Orchestra is by audition.

The Camerata Youth Orchestra was founded in 1989 in order to provide an outstanding performance opportunity to intermediate and advanced level students. In the fall of 1999, the group was expanded to a full youth orchestra, The Jackson Symphony Youth Orchestra. In February 1998, the Sinfonia Strings, was organized to provide beginning string players with their first ensemble experience.
