Join in an evening of performances by graduating seniors of the National Symphony Orchestra Youth Fellowship program as they take the stage performing a wide range of solo and chamber pieces. For over four decades, the Youth Fellowship program has provided pre-professional arts training to high school students in the Greater Washington D.C. area, fostering their musical development to pursue careers in orchestral music.
Since its inception in the 1980–1981 season, the program has provided Washington metropolitan area instrumentalists with full scholarships to study privately with NSO and WNO musicians. The program has also provided opportunities to observe NSO rehearsals, attend concerts, and to participate in seminars, discussions, and masterclasses with musicians, conductors, and NSO and Kennedy Center administrative leaders. The program includes chamber music coached by NSO musicians and side-by-side rehearsal opportunities with the NSO.
For all Millennium Stage performances, a limited number of advance reservations are available on a first come, first served basis. Advance reservations do not guarantee a seat, and patrons are encouraged to arrive early.
Online advance reservations for a given performance date will open on a rolling basis, opening every Wednesday two weeks out from the date.
For live Millennium Stage performances free tickets will also be available at the Hall of States Box Office on the day of the performance, beginning at 4:30 p.m.
Seating is first come, first served. Standing room is available behind the seated area as space allows.
