Glendale Youth Orchestra Presents Scheherazade at the Alex Theatre Tickets

The Glendale Youth Orchestra presents as part of the 35th Anniversary Season Rimsky-Korsakov’s Scheherazade, a grand symphonic poem featuring various members and sections of the orchestra. Alongside the Rimsky-Korsakov, opening the concert will be John Williams’ Olympic Fanfare and Theme while also featuring two young soloists, Ingrid Herman (17, La Crescenta) and Simon Yao (12, Camarillo). Ingrid serves as co-principal of the cello section and 2024 Concerto Winner and will perform the Bruch, Kol Nidrei. Simon is one of the winners of GYO’s Inaugural piano competition and will perform the Mendelssohn, Piano Concerto No. 1 in g Minor, Op. 25. “The theme of the concert is celebrating heroes, which not only surrounds the story of Scheherazade, but also celebrating all of our young students, who are all heroes in their own right” says Henry Shin, music director and conductor.
