Concert Series All four orchestras participate in the three family concerts that are performed annually as part of the regular concert series. The spring concert, normally held in May, features the winner of the the GBYO annual member concerto competition. In addition to the fall, winter and spring concerts, the Principal Orchestra presents an annual Young People's Concert. This concert is geared for an audience of children aged five to twelve years. A narrator hosts the concert, so that instruction as well as entertainment is included. Each year the concert focuses on a central theme such as 1) The Instruments of the Orchestra, 2) Music and Dance, 3) Music with a Story, 4) Musical Pictures. 2009-10 Concert Dates FALL Concert Sunday, November 15, 2009, 3:00 pm Featuring all four orchestras of the GBYO Adults $15; Student/Seniors $10 WINTER Concert Sunday, February 28, 2010, 3:00 pm Featuring all four orchestras of the GBYO
