Our conductors
Dr. Ke-Yuan Hsin has spent years conducting world wide from Europe to the far Pacific. Ke-Yuan, a native of Taiwan, came to the The University of Texas in 2021 to gain his PhD in conducting which he achieve in 2024. The Orchestra has taken advantage of Ke-Yuan’s proximity by having him as a conductor FIVE times! The Orchestra leadership is hoping Dr. Hsin will make the Austin area his American headquarters so that we can have him conduct again … and again … and again!
Our long-time Composer-in-Residence, Dr. M L Daniels, has been elevated to Emeritus status. We now have a new Composer-in Resident, Mr. Andrew Grainger. Andy, originally from England, has been performing and composing in the Austin area for well over two decades! We claim him as a Texan now. Andy composed and conducted a piece with us two years ago. The piece and its performance was judged #2 in the nation. He will again conduct the Orchestra in another original composition.
