(Both orchestras, under the direction of Music Director Robert Ian Winstin, will be performing by invitation in Beijing & Shanghai China later this summer.)

The VYSO and the American Symphonietta have recorded over seven commercially released CD's between them and have won numerous awards - including several Videographer's Awards for their concert videos. They have traveled and performed in Florence & Rome - with a Command Performance for Pope John Paul II - Toronto, Athens, Paris, London, New York's Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall, and Washington D.C.'s Kennedy Center.
