The Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of New York is committed to providing a rich, educational and collegial rehearsal and performance environment for the musical development of its members and for the cultural benefit of the people of the metropolitan area.

The MYO organization includes two symphonic orchestras, one chamber orchestra, one string orchestra, a four-part vocal chorale and a two children’s choirs. The new season will begin with a total membership of over 400 young people between the ages of eight and eighteen. All of the ensembles rehearse on Tuesday evenings throughout the school year (except the Chorale, which rehearses on Mondays) and perform three or four times a year at concerts scheduled throughout the metropolitan area.

For the past several years many of the high school-aged members have participated on the MYO summer tour, taking them to countries throughout Europe and the Far East.
