The Springfield Symphony Youth Orchestras’ 2023-24 Season Premiere concert was a vibrant showcase of dedication through musical expression. Conducted by Matt Bertuzzi and Jonathan Lam, the young musicians delivered a diverse program, from “The Muppet Show Theme” to the intricate movements of Prokofiev’s “Lieutenant Kijé Suite Symphonique.” The concert not only highlighted the skills of the SYO and SYS in classical ensemble performance but also reflected the life lessons learned through their journey in SSYO. It was a celebration of their growth, both as musicians and individuals, making a lasting impact on their lives.
