NYO2 is an orchestral training program for talented young instrumentalists ages 14-17 created by Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute (WMI). Based on the success of the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America (NYO-USA), NYO2 launched in the summer of 2016 with a particular focus on attracting talented students from groups underserved by and underrepresented in the classical orchestral field. Each summer, a group of young musicians come together to interact with one another, learn from an all-star faculty in a variety of settings-including individual lessons, sectionals, and chamber ensembles-and play under the direction of a celebrated conductor. Learn more about NYO2 and apply to be a part of the 2018 orchestra by visiting carnegiehall.org/NYO2.
