For nearly 70 years, the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra, or MYSO, has unlocked the transformative magic of music for generations of young artists. 

Whether you're a current student musician, a proud parent, or one of our visionary supporters, this podcast is for you. 

Together, we'll go behind the scenes to showcase the lifelong friendships forged and the incredible life lessons learned through MYSO.

This episode features an interview with Nico, a senior percussionist who joined MYSO in his junior year of high school and drives 45 minutes from Kenosha to Milwaukee multiple times per week for rehearsals. 

Despite only starting music as a freshman, Nico has excelled in multiple ensembles, and he discusses how MYSO has helped him develop self-discipline, make like-minded friends, and grow as a person.

Let's jump in and let's honor the music within us all!
