== History ==
The Tulsa Youth Symphony Orchestra began as an educational wing of the Tulsa Philharmonic in the early 1960s. In October 1962, Tulsa Philharmonic Society President Burch Mayo appointed a committee of six Society board members to explore the possibility of establishing a Tulsa Youth Symphony Orchestra.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tulsaworld.com/article.aspx/Hotel_magnate_John_Burch_Mayo_90_dies/20090530_11_a12_editor679414 )〕 The committee members included Bonnibel Lester, Betty Bradstreet,〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Assistance League of Tulsa )〕 C.A. Astle, Herbert Gussman (founder of the Tulsa Philharmonic), Dr. Robert L. Briggs and Gerald Whitney. Briggs was the chair of the music department at the University of Tulsa and Whitney was Supervisor of Music for the Tulsa Public Schools. Mrs. Lester chaired the committee. The board members had extensive ties in the music world - Gussman's friendships included Isaac Stern, Leonard Bernstein, Eugene Istomin, and Jan Pierce. The 78 member Youth Symphony gave its debut concert on February 15, 1964, in the Tulsa Municipal Theater - now known as the Brady Theater. They performed Howard Hanson's Symphony No. 2.〔http://digital.library.okstate.edu/oktoday/1970s/1975/oktdv25n4.pdf〕 The featured soloist was the orchestra's Principal Trumpet, Phil Driscoll. A second concert was given May 9, also in the Municipal Theater. In August 1965, Tulsa hosted the National Youth Symphony convention at the Mayo Hotel; Maestro Franco Autori, conducted the convention orchestra.〔http://newspaperarchive.com/ada-evening-news/1965-08-08/page-23〕 Mrs. Richard Nixon attended a Tulsa Youth Symphony concert in her honor May 13, 1971.〔http://nixon.archives.gov/themuseum/exhibits/2012/resources/PN_Volunteerism%20activities.pdf〕
