"I love YSI because it provides students and staff alike with an enriching, musical, and fun experience with the saxophone. We have truly built a community that supports each other in personal and musical growth. I love seeing our students leave camp with a fire about saxophone and a pride in what they have and will accomplish."

"I love YSI because I have had the opportunity to see first hand how it impacts and changes the lives of saxophone students all over the state. Not only does it provide them with a fun and enriching musical outlet, a place to make great long-time friends, and a platform for building their sense of esteem and discipline, YSI provides an opportunity to grow students’ identity, as musicians, saxophonists, and people."
