Thank you Texas Commission on the Arts for featuring this project that highlights what American music means to us! Our residency this year with the Houston Youth Symphony Coda Music Program allowed beginning music students in 3rd-5th grade to work on a world premiere by Ivan Trevino, meet the composer, and perform with us in a group of mixed generations and levels. Every year we love seeing how readily these students embrace new music and Texan musicians as part of what they do.

Our July newsletter is out, with upcoming application deadlines, a grant workshop, our audience engagement Speaker Series installment, and news on just some of the activities that TCA supports across the state, including this America 250 grant to Houston Youth Symphony that involved work done by Texas Touring Roster group WindSync!
