American Youth Symphony Family Concert at Royce Hall

Collaborations with these varied and highly respected conductors promise a suite of concerts that will delight audiences across Los Angeles.  The majority of AYS concerts are presented for free as a gift to the community – part of a long-standing commitment to eliminating all barriers to experiencing the remarkable beauty, power and inspiration of orchestral masterworks.

Conducting the 11am Family Concert at Royce Hall on February 20th is Juan Felipe Molano. Maestro Molano is currently the conductor of the Los Angeles Philharmonic's Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA), and previously held that position with the Colombian Youth Philharmonic, Youth Orchestra Salinas (California), Caldas Chamber Orchestra, Cali Youth Philharmonic and Bogota Youth Philharmonic. During 2008-2013 he was the National Orchestral Director of Batuta Colombian System of Youth Orchestras (El Sistema - Colombia).  This concert officially kicks off Maestro Molano's first season as a Resident Conductor with the American Youth Symphony.

Maestro Molano will lead the orchestra in a program that includes Britten’s The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra, designed to entertain and engage both young children and classical music enthusiasts of all ages.  This concert is presented at no-charge to the public and sponsored by First 5 LA and the Charles H. Kaman Charitable Foundation.
