Thanks for your interest in the Louisville Youth Orchestra.   We are one of the oldest youth orchestras in the country and welcome all dedicated young musicians regardless of race, creed, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation or economic circumstances. We also offer financial scholarships based on need.

 

All new musicians and all returning musicians are required to audition each year. Auditions help LYO's professional staff determine which of our orchestras and ensembles will be best for you.

 

• Be sure to sign up for email alerts about auditions.

• More audition information will be available during the summer.

• In-person auditions will be scheduled during August.
