Welcome to DCYOP’s 2025–2026 Season!

Registration Information

 

Join us for another exciting year of music-making at the DC Youth Orchestra Program! Our fall programming welcomes orchestral string, wind, brass, and percussion students to work with our talented faculty and conductors. Students will strengthen their musical skills in both small and large ensemble settings, explore new repertoire, and build lasting friendships.

We also offer beginner-friendly programs for young students who are not yet playing an instrument but are eager to learn more about orchestral music and discover which instrument might be the right fit.

Read on for details about program dates, tuition, financial assistance, and how to register.

If you have any questions, please reach out to Tim Provost, Program Manager, at [email protected].

Space is available for those new to DCYOP with or without experience.

Auditions for placement are needed for any young musicians with more than 6 months of playing experience.
