FOOSA began in the summer of 2013 as the Fresno Opera & Orchestra Summer Academy (hence the acronym, FOOSA). Founded by Artistic Director Thomas Loewenheim and Executive Director Julia Copeland, FOOSA is a partnership between Fresno State and the Youth Orchestras of Fresno. Our two-week summer intensive attracts serious young players who want to commit themselves to a rigorous program of orchestra rehearsals, lessons, master classes, individual practice, and plentiful performance opportunities. The FOOSA Philharmonic is a preprofessional orchestra that allows advanced musicians of college and high school age to enjoy a side-by-side performance experience with our outstanding faculty members.

Dr. Thomas Loewenheim is Head of Strings, Professor of Cello, and Conductor of the University Orchestra at California State University Fresno. He is also Music Director of the Youth Orchestras of Fresno and Artistic Director of the Fresno Opera & Orchestra Summer Academy (FOOSA). Previously he taught at the Indiana University String Academy and the Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN), and served as music director and conductor of the Musical Arts Youth Orchestra (MAYO) in south-central Indiana. Dr. Thomas Loewenheim is a modern renaissance man: a unique musician who enjoys an international career, combining cello performance, conducting, and teaching at the highest levels. He has toured North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East, performing with orchestras, giving recitals, and playing chamber music, and has been broadcast over the national radio networks in Austria, Canada, and Israel. As a conductor, Dr. Loewenheim has earned a reputation for getting the most out of any orchestra, whether coming in for a single performance or festival week, as at the Hong Kong International School Choral and Orchestra Festival, or building an orchestra over a period of years, as at MUN or for MAYO. He founded the iMAYO festival in Bloomington, Indiana, and was a co-founder of the international Tuckamore chamber music festival in St. John’s, Newfoundland.
