CONTACTS

Mr Allan YoungDirigenti

Our conductor is Mr Allan Young - who is the Head of the Instrumental Music Ser-vice in Perth and Kinross, and conductor of Perth Sym-phony Orchestra.

Mr Allan Young is keen to promote musical education and collaborations between the region’s various instru-mental groups, especially those involving youngsters.

He was appointed conductor of Perth Youth Orchestra in 2000 in succession to Mr D. Eoin Bennett who had conducted PYO for over 30 years. Mr Young’s musical career began as a violinist in PYO, serving as its co-leader, and later string tutor.

Under the direction of Mr Young, the orchestra has continued its series of European tours, most recently to Estonia, Poland, Germany and Italy as well as its busy schedule of concerts at home. Also under his direction, Perth Youth Orchestra was the first orchestra to perform at the royal opening of Perth Concert Hall in and the first to perform at the newly renamed Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.

Perth Youth Orchestra je starý 54 let. Byl založen dvěma hudeb-níky a s podporou rodiču měl svůj první koncert 25.červena 1964. Orchestr je ve Skotsku dobročinnou organizací. PYO je založen na tom, že mladí hudebníci touží vyniknout a mají odhodlání uspět.

Perth Youth Orchestra je registrovaná charitativní organizace a díky fondům získává podporu na nákup nástrojů a partitur, stejně jako práci dirigenta a ostatních lektořů, získává prostředky na zkoušení ve Skotsku a díky tomu se může představit na řadě koncertů po celý rok doma i v zahraničí.

Náš dirigent je pan Allan Young on je instrumentální coordiná-tor v Perth a Kinross a je také dirigentem symfonického orchestru v Perthu. Pan Allan Young s velkým zájmem podporuje hudební mládež. Dirigent orchestru mládeže Perth byl jmenován v roce 2011, po úspěšném vedení panem D. Eoin Bennettem, který PYO provázel více než 30 let. Hudební kariéru pan Young začal jako houslista v řadách orchestru, kde později působil jako coordinátor a učitel. Pod vedením pana Younga PYO pokračovalo v Evropském turné, stejně jako v nabitém programu koncertů doma.

Perth Youth Orchestra byl první orchestr který vystoupil na královském otevření Koncertní síně v Perthu v roce 2005 a také první vystoupení na nově přejmenované královské Konzervatoři Skotska v roce 2011. Nedávno orchestr oslavil 50.výročí koncertním turné po Toskánsku, na festivalu mladých orchestrů ve Florencii a v předchozích letech proběhlo turné po Estonsku, Polsku, Německu, Španělsku a Nizozemsku.

Jako jeden z nejstarších orchestru Perth Youth Orchestra je orchestr pozván aby účinkoval na festivalu v Perth stejně jako v představeních pro veřejnost zahrnující vystoupení pro královnu a cleny královské rodiny.

Jenny Whitaker a pupil at Kil-graston School, is also a member of the National Youth Orchestra of Scotland where she is its only female trumpet player. She started learning the cornet at the age of 8, adding the trumpet to her rep-ertoire three years later. Jenny is also a talented singer and pianist. At weekends she attends the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, in Glas-gow, where she enjoys drama and musical theatre. But, inspired by the meteoric career of Alison Balsom, Jenny is taking her trumpet playing to the highest level and plans to pursue the instrument professionally.

Jenny’s trumpet tutor at Kilgraston, Mr Tom Smith, said, “Based on her natural talent, skill and perseverance I believe she would be an ideal candidate for the National Youth Orchestra this year and also has the potential to be considered for both the BBC Young Musician and Young Brass Musician Awards”.

Joseph Pickering (klarinet)Joe Pickering attends Kinross

High School where is tutor is Mr Tim Mitchell. He follows in his big brother Magnus’ footsteps by becoming a soloist with Perth Youth Orchestra. Joe is the youngest of three brothers and has grown up surrounded by music, especially jazz.

He decided to play saxophone at age seven to be different from his brass playing brothers. Now, as well as playing prin-cipal clarinet with Perth Youth Orchestra, Joe plays clarinet

in various Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS) ensembles and played clarinet in the National Youth Orchestra of Scotland Junior Orchestra last year.

Joe also has a passion for composition, and studies with Tom But-ler at the RCS. He was runner up in the RCS Junior’s ‘Composer’s Crucible’ last year and is currently working on an orchestral piece and has ambitions to be a composer of film scores.

2013 - San Gimignano, Itálie

2007 - Krakow, Polsko

2004 - Tallinn, EstonskoJake started playing Scots fiddle with the Blackford Fiddle Group

at the age of 7, where he now teaches other members of the group. He began violin lessons with Joelle Broad when he was 9 years old. He enjoys both styles of music and also a little bit of fusion!

Jake joined Perth Youth Orchestra four years ago. Through PYO he has also played with the RSNO ‘Join In’ orchestra and took part in a Nicola Benedetti workshop, leading the group accompanying her in her performance. He has also enjoyed the social aspect of playing in the orchestra, spending time with other musicians and meeting new people. He is very much looking forward to PYO’s tour of Prague this summer.

Jake is also a member of The Gordon Duncan Experience, a traditional band set up in memory of the great piper. He is lead violin in the Community School of Auchterarder’s string orchestra and he is also the school’s Head Boy. In 2015 he won the Auchterarder & District Rotary Young Musician of the Year award. Jake also plays guitar and piano, taught at school by Gordon Baillie and Maureen Rutherford.

On Saturdays Jake attends RCS and is tutored on fiddle by Ruaraidh Mac-Millan. Jake will attend Newcastle University to study their BA in Folk & Traditional Music course, led by Catriona MacDonald, a new challenge that he is looking forward to taking up in September this year.
