Lyceum Philharmonic at American Heritage School, led by Kayson Brown, has reached the top ofthe Billboard Charts on three separate albums, was featured on PBS with The Piano Guys,recorded for SONY Masterworks wtih lexi Walker, and has been viewed over 100 million times onYouTube! These accomplished young musicians come from more than 30 schools across the state ofUtah to participate in the after-school Lyceum Orchestras Program at American Heritage Schoolin American Fork, Utah. They are part of a comprehensive program consisting of five audition-only orchestras that inspire and mentor students ages 5-18. They seek to: Inspire - nurture a live ofelevated music, increased faith, and patriotism through purposeful events and media. Instruct -develop self-discipline, skills, and character through transformational teaching and professional-level experience and interaction. And Impact (Result of Inspiring and Instructing) - awakenindividuals, families, and communities to the power music has to change hearts and minds whilefulfilling divine potential.

Stephen Sharp nelson of The Piano Guys said, “The Lyceum Orchestras Program is an incomparablecombination of everything that music is meant to be - joy, refinement, belonging, and fun. It offers kids thekind of opportunities that make music exciting and cool. It provides an environment that isn’t blindly affixedupon purposeless perfection, but rather a more selfless pursuit of excellence. My favorite part of Lyceum is itsinherent spirituality. There is a special feeling suggesting a profound development, not only of the body andmind, but of the soul.”
