About Us
Founded by a group of high school composers in Palo Alto, Palo Alto Youth Composers aims to forge meaningful connections between high school composers and musicians and provide real-world opportunities for original student music to be showcased and performed. Open to all styles of music, PAYC fosters collaboration among fellow composers through sharing valuable feedback and advice, empowering high school composers to bring their creative visions to life.
This organization is made possible by our founding members who have helped create, shape, and implement our vision.
We thank the founding members Aidan Peng, Jacob Chiu, Vincent Tsai, Aritra Nag, Daxin Qi, Tristan Chang, Ada Chen, and Mr. Edward Corpuz for starting this organization to connect composers and musicians in Palo Alto, encouraging the continued flourishing of musicianship in this area.
