The National Youth Orchestra is coming to Nottingham, and we want to meet YOU!
If you are a local musician aged 12-19 and play an orchestral instrument at Grade 4 level or above, come and join for NYO Open Side by Side.
Experience the thrill of live music, playing in an orchestra made up entirely of like-minded teenagers. Explore exciting music sitting alongside musicians from The National Youth Orchestra, with an NYO conductor.
A sharing performance to friends and family will take place towards the end of the session.
Sign up by Wednesday 17 December 2025. You will then receive final information and music to prepare.
