The Greater Boulder Youth Orchestras serve young musicians from Boulder and beyond with high caliber opportunities to connect with other like-minded youth while working alongside professional musicians. More than 130 GBYO musicians, ages 6-21, experience playing works of master composers in a challenging and rewarding setting. GBYO includes three orchestras and a Wind Ensemble, and highlights each season include a concerto competition, chamber music, and collaborations with amazing individuals and organizations like the Boulder Philharmonic and Colorado Music Festival.
GBYO offers unparalleled programs for young musicians. An outstanding mentorship program pairs students with professional musicians and exceptional music majors. GBYO students work with world-class guests, from Mongolian virtuoso Ariunbold Mijiddorj, to Pulitzer finalist Carter Pann, to Boulder High School student composer Leigha Amick.
Over the years, more than half of GBYO graduates have continued to study music in college. Alumni have returned to GBYO as mentors, and it fills us with pride to encounter them in the professional music community.
