Is BYO For Me?
BYO is a first full symphony experience for many of our musicians. BYO is a professionally-run youth orchestra with a supportive and nurturing approach to challenging young musicians. Our preparatory program (BYPO) grows the skill set necessary to succeed in BYO and our chamber orchestra program (BYCO) offers the most skilled musicians the opportunity to play advanced scores.
​
Participation in weekly Saturday morning rehearsals and concerts along with practicing orchestra repertoire during the week are expected as minimum commitments of all BYO musicians.
