Who We Are

YSDP Board is a not-for-profit organization leadership that promotes classical education and inspires talented young musicians. A team of the YSDP Board is elected to represent members’ interests.  The Board of Directors is from both inside and outside the YSDP membership.

What we do

The Board of Directors is behind the operations with the vision, plan, and execution of decisions regarding the operation, members, policies, payouts, and personnel. We provide an effective vision, methodology, tools, and personal commitment to execute and operate the organization. The Board of Directors meets once a month and is available remotely or in person on a consistent and reliable basis for decision-making as well as for tactical and operational needs.

What you can do

Interested in being a part of the team for making a difference for the young players? Email kburdi@ysdp.org. This may be your next destination for intrinsic gratification by helping young talents to flourish and ultimately help them succeed. YSDP Boards appreciate diversity in the skillset and one does not need to be a musician.
