Vermont Youth Orchestra With Trey Anastasio & Ernie Stires
Vermont Youth Orchestra with Trey Anastasio and Ernie Stires is a live concert video featuring a performance by the Vermont Youth Orchestra led by conductor Troy Peters along with Phish leader Trey Anastasio and his mentor Ernie Stires. Anastasio studied composition and arranging under Stires while he was a student at Goddard College in Vermont. The concert is divided into four movements featuring compositions written and arranged by Anastasio and Stires.
The concert's centerpiece is a performance of the Phish song "Guyute," which also contains elements of another Phish song, "My Friend, My Friend." The previous night's performance of "Guyute" from February 3, 2001, in Troy, New York, was eventually released on the Phish tribute album Sharin' in the Groove.
The concert was only released on VHS videotape and is currently out of print.

Famous quotes containing the words vermont, youth and/or orchestra:
“Anything I can say about New Hampshire
Will serve almost as well about Vermont,
Excepting that they differ in their mountains.
The Vermont mountains stretch extended straight;
New Hampshire mountains curl up in a coil.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Hardly ever can a youth transferred to the society of his betters unlearn the nasality and other vices of speech bred in him by the associations of his growing years. Hardly ever, indeed, no matter how much money there be in his pocket, can he ever learn to dress like a gentleman-born. The merchants offer their wares as eagerly to him as to the veriest “swell,” but he simply cannot buy the right things.”
—William James (1842–1910)
““Pop” Wyman ruled here with a firm but gentle hand; no drunken man was ever served at the bar; no married man was allowed to play at the tables; across the face of the large clock was written “Please Don’t Swear,” and over the orchestra appeared the gentle admonition, “Don’t Shoot the Pianist—He’s Doing His Damndest.””
