Ivy Wang

Ivy Wang is currently 17 years old and is a senior at Marquette High School. This is her fourth year in the St. Louis Symphony Youth Orchestra (YO).  

Wang has been playing the oboe for 6 years and has participated in both the St. Louis All-Suburban and Missouri All-State band/orchestras. Prior to this, she played the piano and violin. Wang is incredibly grateful for the people who have helped guide and support her, and the people who have helped her foster her love and passion for music. These people include her current oboe teacher Xiomara Mass, her former oboe teacher Cassie Loy, her middle school band directors Jason Bergman, Mike Owens, and Robert Wilhite, her high school band directors Christian Pierce and Kaylin Knost and her friends and family.  

Outside of music, Wang spends much of her free time drawing, reading, and occasionally cooking.
