National Youth Music Organisations
The National Youth Music Organisations (NYMOs) bring talented young musicians together, on a national level, for inspirational training and advanced ensemble performance opportunities.
They include national orchestras, choirs and bands across a range of genres (see links on the left to find out more about the individual NYMOs). Participation in NYMO activity is the pinnacle of many young musicians’ progression.
Set up in 2001, the NYMO Fund sits proudly at the heart of Youth Music’s aim to encourage and nurture talent. It is one of our longest-running funding programmes and supports outstanding opportunities for development, learning and progression into education and professional music making for young musicians, regardless of their financial circumstances.
The NYMO Fund covers a broad spectrum of musical genres from Western classical to South Asian classical, and contemporary jazz to musical theatre.
To get a flavour for the NYMOs' outstanding work, check out the video from the 2010 NYMO Festival:
