The Young Composers Festival marks the culmination of a year of hard work and dedication from the student participants of the Young Composers Project. This event is an opportunity for the student composers to have their original scores performed by the musicians of The Tucson Symphony Orchestra, receive comments from musicians, teachers and Maestro Jos\u00e9 Luis Gomez, and to present their works to the concert audience for the first time.<\/p>\n
Students from the Introductory and Intermediate Classes will have their pieces performed by the String Quintet and Wind Quintet. Following each initial reading, the student composer will make recommendations to the musicians on the performance of their work. Musicians will then perform the work again to be recorded for the students\u2019 personal use.<\/p>\n\tLearn More about the Young Composers Project<\/a>","excerpt":" TSO String Quintet<\/b> Students from the Introductory and Intermediate Classes will have their pieces performed by the String Quintet and Wind Quintet.

The address of the TCC is 260 S. Church Ave., and the theater is at the east side of the city block quite near that street address. Traveling from Interstate 10, take exit 258 and travel east on Congress St.\/Broadway Blvd. Turn right onto Church Ave. (or another street, depending on the parking location you choose).<\/p>\n Tucson Convention Center venues have a clear bag policy. The largest non-clear bag allowed is a 8\u2033 \u00d7 5\u2033 clutch. All other bags must be clear, no larger than 14\u2033 \u00d7 16\u2033. Bags with backpack straps are not permitted. Bags used to transport medical and childcare equipment are allowed exceptions to this rule.<\/p>\n Parking for downtown Tucson events can often become congested, especially when concurrent events take place at TCC venues. The closest parking to the Leo Rich Theater is TCC Garage A, with its entrance at 260 S. Church Ave. Other parking lots and garages are available in the surrounding blocks, but do not park in residential neighborhoods or in lots belonging to private restaurants and businesses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\tPark Tucson, the City of Tucson's Parking Manager<\/a>\n\t\n Passenger drop-off is available on Church Ave. just south of the Flin Apartments, at a sidewalk running along the north side of the theater to Church Ave.<\/p>\n
