Oklahoma Youth Orchestras features 12 ensembles and a summer camp that serve a diverse student body of over 400 young musicians from all over the region. ​We foster creativity, teamwork and leadership through a strong commitment to excellence in music.
“The opportunity to work with other young musicians in the Oklahoma Youth Orchestra on the great orchestral repertoire was an important part of my learning experience. The teamwork, individual preparedness, and spirit of willingness required to make music on this scale are values that every teenager should cherish, and these have carried me through my musical development.”
