What is a choral orchestra?

In 45 seconds, all our students are able to go from choral formation to orchestra formation, making YMCO unique from any other youth orchestra in the world!

YMCO's Mission:

The mission of the Young Musicians Choral OrchestraTM (YMCO) is to use high quality, intensive musical training, academic support, and personal guidance to improve the lives of talented, low-income students, ages 9-18, from throughout the Bay Area. By advancing their academic, musical, and personal accomplishments throughout their middle-school and high-school years, YMCO enhances students’ competitive appeal and success at four-year universities and conservatories. All of YMCO’s services are provided at no cost.
