Hawaii Youth Symphony (HYS) is Hawai‘i’s only statewide orchestra program for youth, and a comprehensive community resource for orchestral music in Hawai‘i. Each year, HYS serves approximately 650 students, ages 7-18, from nearly 100 schools on different islands – and from all skill levels.

HYS expanded beyond classical music and invited students to find their groove with HYS Jazz. Originating from The Combo program launched in 2018, HYS Jazz is now comprised of two Combo ensembles geared for intermediate and advanced students who play guitar, bass, keyboards, piano, drums, sax, trumpet, and trombone.

The concert series is a joint effort between UH Mānoa Outreach College, UH Mānoa Music Department,the East-West Center Arts Program, and Friends of Mānoa Library.
