AMAZING NEWS! We finally have our new Youth Orchestra conductor! Mr. Andres Moran is the director of the University of
Wisconsin-Stevens Point Symphony Orchestra and a horn teacher. He was a
resident conductor of the El Paso Symphony and also music director of the El
Paso Symphony Youth Orchestras. Mr. Moran has a Doctorate of Music from Indiana
University and a Bachelor of Music from New Mexico State University. Our coaching team and hiring committee met with Mr. Moran
several times before making our decision and we are all excited about having
him join our team next season. He brings with him a great passion for music
education, wonderful ideas about engaging our community, and impressive
technical skills on the podium. "I'm very excited to be joining the Fox Valley Youth
Symphony team!” says Mr. Moran. “Throughout the hiring process, I was impressed
with the level of commitment and passion that the staff and board have for this
program. I can't wait to start working with our young musicians in the fall,
and I look forward to getting to know more members of the Fox Valley community
through our performances." Please
join me in welcoming Mr. Moran to the Youth Orchestra!
