East County Youth Symphony, led by Music Director and Conductor Alexandra Keegan, is the most advanced music program in East San Diego County. Our young musicians meet the challenges of professional discipline, preparing for rehearsals, thoughtful and productive practicing, and original (not adapted for easy learning) repertoire. Membership in East County Youth Symphony is absolutely free, there are no fees or tuition required. It's open to all musicians, ages 7 to 25, who wish to audition. Current members range from relative beginners to some of San Diego County's finest young musicians and come from 42 different schools. Every musician in East County Youth Symphony upper divisions performs in a Symphony Orchestra. In addition, participation in ensembles and/or Chamber Orchestra is encouraged. All ECYS programs and ensembles are absolutely free. The East County Youth Symphony orchestras rehearse weekly and perform 8-10 concerts a year, while the Chamber Orchestra and Ensembles perform year round at a variety of venues.
