The Sacramento Youth Symphony Premier Orchestra celebrates its 70th Anniversary with a landmark concert event. The 75-piece orchestra, under the direction of Maestro Ryan Murray, will perform Aaron Copland’s spirited, folk-inspired ballet suite Rodeo, featuring the instantly recognizable final movement, “Hoe-Down.”

​

The program also includes Johannes Brahms’ Hungarian Dances, Nos. 5 and 6, alongside two outstanding student concerto performances. Emrys Tu will perform Maurice Ravel’s vibrant, jazz-influenced Piano Concerto in G Major (Allegramente), while Leanna Kim takes the stage with Brahms’ monumental Violin Concerto in D Major (Allegro non troppo), a tour de force that blends grandeur and intensity with moments of profound lyricism.
