The North London Youth Orchestra is a brand-new youth orchestra for young musicians aged 13 – 19 (school year 8 and above). Based in North London, we rehearse weekly during term time at the Henrietta Barnett School and perform two concerts per academic year.
Our team is made up of like-minded professionals, dedicated to offering memorable and educational music-making opportunites for students to play full symphonic works, whether or not they choose to pursue music as their career.
