Young Concert Artists

 

Since our founding in 1961, Young Concert Artists has helped young musicians find their way onto the world’s concert stages. We are celebrating 60 years of innovative career-building and artistic nurturing, shining the spotlight on the next generation of extraordinary musicians. YCA began in an era when young artists had nowhere to turn for guidance in a professional capacity. Having championed soloists, ensembles, and composers; YCA has now helped launch nearly 300 careers.

New Works
We’ve proudly commissioned six YCA composers to commemorate six decades. Each composition will receive its premiere performance this season! Don’t miss new works by Mason Bates (2000), Daniel Kellogg (2002), Andrew Norman (2007), Tonia Ko (2015), Katie Balch (2017), and Saad Haddad (2019)!

Conversations
Six YCA alumni and current artists will join host Kai Talim as featured guests on a Skip the Repeat podcast. Learn about the experience of these young musicians building their careers through these intimate conversations. For dates and more information, please visit www.skiptherepeat.com

60 Stories for 60 Years
Throughout the year we will bring you video stories as YCA artists and alumni talk about their time on the roster, and offer tributes to Susan Wadsworth.
