• Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphonies
  Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphonies (GTCYS, pronounced GITseez) was created in 1972 when leaders of Minnesota's arts and philanthropic community joined to create a new organization with the resources to offer what none of the four then-existing youth orchestras could do alone. With the support from representatives of the Minnesota Orchestra, The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and the University of Minnesota, and grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board and The Bush Foundation, GTCYS was established to provide an exemplary orchestral experience for young musicians.
  
  
• Rochester Orchestra & Chorale
  Since its founding in 1919, Rochester's own symphony and chorale was managed by the city, until in 1996, the RO&C launched its first season as an independent music organization. After many musically and fiscally successful seasons, the RO&C continues to meet our community's demand for high quality musical performances and exciting educational opportunities. Located in Minnesota.
  
  
• The Minnesota Orchestra
  Known as the Minnesota Orchestra since 1968, it was founded as the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra in 1903. Today it is comprised of 95 musicians under the baton of Music Director Eiji Oue (pron. AY-gee OH-way). The Minnesota Orchestra makes its home at Orchestra Hall in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota--a landmark concert hall distinctive for acoustic cubes on its ceiling and stage wall.
