After a long and thoughtful search, Lucas Shogren has been selected as MYS’s new Repertory Orchestra conductor!

We welcome Sue Fairchild to MYS as our part-time Interim Managing Director while the Board conducts a search for a new Executive Director. We are in good hands with Sue as she brings a wealth of corporate and non-profit managerial and operational wisdom to the position.

We are extremely grateful to Sue, and the entire MYS staff, for keeping things running smoothly during this transition. We look forward to kicking off our 50th Anniversary Season of MYS with you very soon! 

On the eve of our 50th Anniversary season, the Minnesota Youth Symphonies Board of Directors is proud to announce the appointment of Mark Mandarano as its next Artistic Director and Conductor of the Symphony Orchestra!
