\nLast July, the Manila Symphony Junior Orchestra (MSJO) received the gold prize in addition to the Grand Prix in the 13th Bratislava International Youth Music in Slovakia. It was their first participation in the festival.<\/p>\n

Only two companies were awarded the Grand Prix in Bratislava this year, the Afrikaanse Ho\u00ebr Meisieskool Pretoria from South Africa for their choir and the MSJO from the Philippines for their orchestra. In the same month, the MSJO journeyed to Mozart\u2019s Vienna and garnered the top prize at the prestigious 2024 Summa Cum Laude International Music Festival, a reprise of their golden win of 2021, besting 140 orchestras from 33 countries.<\/p>\n

The repertoire for the concert will include classical works for strings by Josef Suk, Antonio Vivaldi, and Anton\u00edn Dvo\u0159\u00e1k, as well as popular classics by Andrea and Ennio Morricone, Harold Arlen, Ryan Cayabyab, Conrado del Rosario, BINI, and Benny Castillon, among others.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Manila Symphony Junior Orchestra (MSJO)\u00a0is the\u00a0string orchestra training program of the MSO Foundation.\u00a0The junior orchestra is\u00a0composed of the most advanced students of the MSO Music Academy and other qualified students ages 9 to 26 years old.<\/p>\n

Between 2017 and 2019, the MSJO toured Austria, Germany, Italy, the Czech Republic, Korea, and Myanmar. Several\u00a0MSJO\u00a0members are top-prize winners of\u00a0international competitions and\u00a0of the Philippines\u2019 National Music Competitions for Young Artists.<\/p>\n

To date, several MSJO members are enrolled\u00a0in\u00a0leading\u00a0music schools in the United States and Europe, such as the Juilliard School in New York, Cleveland State University, the Hochschule f\u00fcr Musik Hanns Eisler in Berlin, and the Mozarteum University in Salzburg.<\/p>\n

The MSJO is principally supported by Standard Insurance Inc., under its corporate motto \u201cIn Pursuit of Excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n
