The Edmonton Youth Orchestra provides the highest possible standard of orchestral training and experience to music students age 11 to 24.
The Edmonton Youth Orchestra (EYO) Association, formed in 1952, supports two nationally renowned symphony orchestras: The Intermediate Youth Orchestra, and The Senior Youth Orchestra. Through these two orchestras, the EYO's music program, one of the finest in Canada, provides the highest possible standard of orchestral training and experience to over 150 music students from age 11 to 24.
The EYO experience has a profound and lasting impact on the lives of EYO "graduates." Some become music teachers, members of professional orchestras, or soloists. All are motivated students sharing a love of music. Our program includes regular weekly rehearsals from September through May, concert performances for each orchestra, weekend workshops, scholarships, and a concerto competition jointly sponsored by the EYO and the Alberta Registered Music Teachers' Association. Players for both orchestras are selected by competitive auditions held each May.
