ABOUT GTCYS
Mission
In the conviction that music nourishes the mind, body, and
spirit of the individual and enriches the community, the Greater
Twin Cities Youth Symphonies provides a rigorous and inspiring
orchestral experience for young musicians.
Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphonies (GTCYS) transforms young musicians
of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds by breaking down barriers to music
instruction and providing exceptional year-round orchestral experiences. Led by
Artistic Director Mark Russell Smith, outstanding conductors, and coaches from
the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra (SPCO) and Minnesota Orchestra, GTCYS serves
more than 1,000 students ages 8-18 through nine school-year orchestras, two
summer programs, and Harmony. Launched in 2016, Harmony provides before-
school beginning violin and cello instruction to students at Riverview West Side
School of Excellence in St. Paul’s West Side neighborhood.
Each year, GTCYS shares more than 30 concerts with 13,000 audience members
at locations across the region, including Orchestra Hall, The Ordway, Ted Mann
Concert Hall, plus free community concerts at local schools, homeless shelters,
and care centers. Renowned for its rich international touring history, GTCYS’
Symphony tours biennially, most recently to Eastern Europe (2018), Argentina
(2016), and Spain (2014). In total, GTCYS inspires more than 17,000 children and
adults through our educational programs, free community activities, concerts, and
special events each year.
Founded in 1972, GTCYS’ 16,000 alumni include leaders in every field who
developed lifelong values of teamwork, discipline, and community engagement
during their GTCYS experience. With the help of generous donors, GTCYS will
award $100,000 in need-based scholarships for tuition and sponsored lessons
this season. Through a unique partnership since 2011, GTCYS and the SPCO
work together to strengthen our community, build audiences, provide educational
opportunities for students, and promote the value of classical music. For more

A MESSAGE FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR Dear GTCYS Friends and Families, Among the multitudinous changes that the coronavirus has brought to our daily lives, perhaps there are some positive developments as well. For me, one of those positive things is a bit more time to sit down and reflect. Things are normally especially hectic this time of year for all students and their families, and while recognizing the new stresses that virtual school and virtual life bring, I hope we can all take a moment to reflect a bit. All this is to say that I am deeply grateful for each and every GTCYS student and their family for the inspired work and tenacity this year. While it was of course a tremendous disappointment to not be together for our Spring Festival Concert, I salute the students, conductors, and staff for closing out a challenging spring on a positive note. I know that I personally have enjoyed remaining connected, albeit virtually, with the musicians in my orchestra, and I know that all conductors and staff share my sentiment. I am so grateful for your commitment to GTCYS, to music and to the community that we have created together. Thank you, parents, for your continued support of our organization. Thank you, students, for adapting and auditioning and bravely facing the challenges that social distancing bring. We are more committed than ever to offering next year’s (and this summer’s) GTCYS students an inspiring and enriching experience. The combination of music and community that GTCYS manifests is clearly vital for all of us in the coming weeks and months. Thanks for your commitment to music, to bringing beauty into a world that desperately needs it, and to GTCYS. I very much look forward to the time when we see each other again. Until then, on behalf of the staff and conductors and Board of GTCYS, I send my very best wishes. Mark Russell Smith Artistic Director 10 gtcys greater twin cities youth symphonies

CONDUCTORS
Mark Russell Smith, Artistic Director
& Symphony Conductor
Whether conducting contemporary masterpieces or bringing fresh
insights to the symphonies of Mozart, Beethoven, or Brahms, Mr. Smith
demonstrates consummate musicianship and enthusiastic commitment to
the art of music-making – qualities that have endeared him to audiences
and musicians alike. He joined GTCYS as Artistic Director in 2012
with nearly 30 years of experience conducting and teaching. Under his
leadership, GTCYS has experienced heightened artistic success, student
engagement, and a mentor project with the University of Minnesota. Mr.
Smith also holds positions as Artistic Director of Orchestral Studies at the University of Minnesota (since
2007) and Music Director and Conductor of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra (since 2008). Previous
positions include Director of New Music Projects for The SPCO and Conductor of the Richmond Symphony
Orchestra.
In the winter and spring of 2012, Mr. Smith was the instigating artistic force behind the University of
Minnesota School of Music’s Britten Peace Project, which combined musical and historical study and
community engagement, culminating in critically acclaimed performances of Britten’s War Requiem in
Europe and America, collaborating with German and American music students, professional musicians
and the Nobel Peace Prize Forum. As a guest conductor, Mr. Smith enjoys a burgeoning international
reputation that has brought him engagements and re-engagements with prestigious American orchestras,
including the St. Louis Symphony, the Houston Symphony, Minnesota Orchestra, and The Saint Paul
Chamber Orchestra. A champion of the music of our time, Mr. Smith led The Saint Paul Chamber
Orchestra’s Engine 408 series, working closely with living composers and adding his unique perspective
to enhance the orchestra’s great tradition of fostering new works. He has collaborated with YoYo Ma
and members of the Chamber Music Society of Minnesota in Hún Qiáo (Bridge of Souls), a concert of
remembrance and reconciliation featuring world premieres by Korean, Japanese, Chinese and American
composers.
Mr. Smith grew up in a musical family in Phoenix, Arizona where he began the serious study of
conducting while still in his teens. He is a graduate in cello performance of the Juilliard School, where
he studied with Claus Adam, and of the Curtis Institute of Music, where he studied conducting with Max
Rudolf and Otto-Werner Mueller. Mr. Smith resides in Minneapolis, where his wife, Ellen Dinwiddie
Smith, is a horn player with the Minnesota Orchestra. They have two sons, Alexander and Noah. More at

PLAY YOUR PART 15VIRTUAL SEASON FINALE
Premiered Sunday, May 17 at 7:00pm
Jupiter, The Bringer of Jollity Gustav Holst
from The Planets
Watch the performance here.
Performing GTCYS’ season finale, Jupiter, is an annual hallmark that spans nearly
20 years. Bringing the entire GTCYS student body together in a mass performance
is a moving demonstration of unity, community, and beauty. Typically performed
at Orchestra Hall, students fill the stage, line the aisles, and stand antiphonally in
the balconies enveloping the audience for a surround-sound experience. It is an
unforgettable, lifechanging experience for musicians and audience members alike.
Even though in-person performances aren’t possible this spring, we could not
overlook this annual tradition and opportunity for students to come together
and share their talents in a special way. We are thrilled to share GTCYS’ first-
ever mass virtual performance in celebration of our wonderful students and the
culmination of the 2019-20 season.
350 GTCYS’ musicians – almost half our student body across the nine orchestras –
chose to participate and are included in this mass virtual orchestra. Special thanks
to our conductors for supporting students during the process and to GTCYS’ staff
for tackling the immense process of producing the video.
We hope these talented young musicians bring you joy and help you find hope in
the future. They are a daily inspiration to us, and we look forward to resurrecting
this tradition at Orchestra Hall with everyone next year.

*Graduating Seniors: We congratulate and bid a fond farewell to the 79 graduating seniors

+Student Mentors from GTCYS: In the seventh annual GTCYS Student Mentor program,
17 Philharmonic and Symphony students are serving as mentors for Philharmonia East and

deepening their own learning. Thank you, mentors!
°Student Ambassadors from GTCYS: As members of our seventh annual Ambassador
Program, 75 students shared a presentation about GTCYS with their school orchestra or band.
