A special focus of the Innovators is our support of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra’s Young Strings Program.

Designed to increase the multicultural diversity of American orchestras, the Young Strings program discovers, develops, and promotes the musical talent of outstanding African American and Latino string players in the City of Dallas, and provides them with the skills and resources necessary to pursue professional music careers.  Founded in 1992 by DSO musicians and board members, Young Strings offers three levels of instruction and currently serves close to 200 students annually.

 

A special treat for Innovators is getting to hear various Young Strings performers at our Behind the Scenes.

Our volunteer program provides many opportunities to meet our Young Strings performers and help with recitals.
