YOUNG STARS of the FUTURE, The Premiere county-wide Performance Competition & Concert. The goal of the Young STARS of the Future Competition and Concert is to foster new, young talent residing or studying in Orange County, California. Winners of the Young STARS of the Future auditions are selected by a Jury of distinguished musicians. The criteria are exceptional talent, virtuosity, artistic individuality, projection as a performer, and promise. The musicians compete against a standard of excellence - not each other. There is a limit of three First Prize Winners. Each winner receives a $1000 Scholarship and a performance with the Symphony. Auditions are open for all Orchestral Instruments as well as Piano, Organ, Harp, Voice and Conducting. The three categories include Classical, Jazz, and Musical Theatre. To date the Symphony has awarded over $80,000 in scholarships! Past winners have gone on to professional careers in the fields of classical music and musical theatre. KONCERTS for KIDS, one of the Symphony's educational outreach programs, has performed for over 75,000 students and their teachers from cities and communities throughout south and central Orange County over the past 25 years. These LIVE symphonic concerts are held annually during the school day. Students and teachers are bused to and from their schools to the concerts completely free of charge! KONCERTS for KIDS is a specifically designed multi-media program for fourth and fifth grade students. They experience music, performed by a large symphony orchestra, from a variety of genres including classical, jazz, opera, film scores from Hollywood and the music of Broadway. These multi-media concerts are professionally narrated. The students also have the opportunity to hear performances at each concert from two very talented young performers who have been chosen as award winners from the Symphony’s annual Young STARS of the Future Competition. Students attending these concerts come from schools from the Tustin USD, Capistrano Unified School District, Saddleback Valley USD and private schools throughout south county.
