MISSION
Our mission statement
specifies our dedication...
 “...to
the development of the Tacoma Youth Symphony Association as a quality music
education organization that attracts and sustains the highest level of musical
excellence for training and performance in the Puget Sound area.
The TYSA will challenge young musicians to pursue musical excellence, to seek
intellectual stimulation, to
 experience
the love and joy of music making, to appreciate cultural diversity and to become socially aware and
responsible citizens. The Association
will accomplish this through
a partnership that includes but is not limited to students, businesses, schools, foundations and other arts
organizations.”

 The Tacoma Youth Symphony
Association
is pleased to be celebrating its
50th season. The past five decades have witnessed the evolution of
an exemplary music education organization recognized by
youth symphony and professional orchestras nationwide for its artistic and
business excellence. The nurturing familial atmosphere pervades the
entire association from management to the students themselves. This
close knit relationship has provided for the continuation of much needed
artistic support. Major conservatories and universities such as
Curtis, Juilliard, the Cleveland Institute, and the San Francisco
Conservatory recruit TYSA members because they respect the fact that these
potential students have been through our program. Their experiences
with our alumni have proven the solid technical and artistic nature of our
teachings. Moreover, these institutions recognize TYSA students as
dedicated, inspired musicians who are willing and very capable of serving
others. This is the Tacoma Youth Symphony Association. It
provides much more than music instruction. It is “home” to students,
conductors, guest artists, educators and administrators. It is
this family environment that has made it successful. Although
alumni often become well respected soloists, major orchestra members and
composers, many return “home” as coaches and teachers following their
conservatory or college training perpetuating this atmosphere of care and
devotion.
