Asian Youth Orchestra (AYO)

Music and Performance Programming

Asian Youth Orchestra is Asia's premiere pre-professional orchestra, offering the opportunity for advanced study, performance and international concert touring with celebrated artists and conductors through annual tuition-free summer programs. Its mission is to expose Asia's brightest young musicians to rich and varied artistic experiences that include rare opportunities for exchange, study, and performance; and to celebrate the commitment, dedication and extraordinary talent of the young musicians in Asia. They hope to empower Asian musicians and to have a positive influence on the brain and talent drain that continues to frustrate all Asian nations.
