Wheeling Symphony Youth Orchestra

The Wheeling Symphony Youth Orchestra (WSYO) offers young musicians from the tri-state area a tuition-free, formal venue in which to train and perform together. Students from junior high school through college are provided with a professional musical environment and tutelage by Music Director Benjamin Podolski and Conductor Matthew Inkster. Competitive auditions draw students from West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Rehearsals are held weekly from September through April, and the WSYO presents two primary concerts each year. These concerts are free and open to the public.
