Upper School Students Shine at Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra Spring Concert

Two remarkable Upper School Tartan musicians, Gloria Zhou and Richard Feng, showcased their extraordinary talents during the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra's (PSYO) spring concert at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts. The concert featured a powerful program that included Stravinsky’s The Firebird, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2, and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6.

Gloria, a flutist and piccolo player, has been part of the Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra in recent years. Her performance this year added to the growing list of achievements. Richard performed on the piano, which he has played since the age of five. He has already earned a stellar reputation, winning numerous awards and competitions throughout his young career. 

The concert also highlighted the incredible musicianship of PSYO members, who represent over 34 schools across Southern California. Founded in 1993, Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra has established itself as the premier training orchestra for young musicians in Orange County. Under the guidance of Pacific Symphony’s renowned music director, the PSYO continues to provide opportunities for students to perform at the highest level, contributing to their artistic and personal growth.
