You learn from each other’s ideas and learn to be generous. You learn to respect other people and how to behave in new situations.

Being able to learn from other people your age is so important

Some of my most memorable experiences in music come from playing with other musicians. Not only does NYO give you these opportunities, but it takes them all across the UK.
Andrew
To give a free place on an NYO project, that is SO kind! To be able to have the opportunity and not worry about the cost is amazing, really, just amazing.
Ellie

It was a truly inspiring day to see so many young people getting so much out of being part of this wonderful organisation.

If we were able to inspire anyone in the audience or at the schools’ workshops to take up a musical instrument, I think that is an incredible thing.

When you play, it takes you away from difficulties in life
