Founded in
2003, Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of Hong Kong (MYO) is a registered charity
in HK and is one of the finest youth orchestras in Asia. The orchestra is
dedicated to nurturing the talents of young musicians and inspiring their
musical potential.
MYO consists of
5 orchestras of different levels, ranging from beginner to
advanced, catering to students of different ages and skill levels. All members
are required to pass an audition to ensure the overall standard and quality of
musical performances by the orchestra.
Audition
Audition will
usually take place during rehearsals and be conducted by the respective
conductor.
The audition
consists of two parts: in the first part, you need to perform two pieces of
different styles; while in the second part, you will have a sight reading test.
If you have passed the audition successfully, the conductor will assign you to
the orchestra that best suits you and decide the section and desk you will be
playing according to your musical ability.
