PYO at Glasgow 2008

Glasgow 2008

Perth Youth Orchestra is in its 46th year. Founded in 1962, the orchestra is a registered charity in Scotland. PYO is sustained both by the young players desire to excel and by its determination to succeed.

The orchestra rehearses each Monday evening, from October to April, supported by Perth and Kinross Council. Perth Youth Orchestra is a registered charitable organisation and the funds it raises help to support the purchase of instruments and musical scores, as well as the services of its conductor and instrumental tutors at rehearsals and concerts- at the Perth Festival of the Arts, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and in a variety of concerts thoughout the year at home and abroad.

The Gannochy Trust is a major sponsor, sharing the orchestra's aim to develop the talent of young orchestral players in Perth and district. Support from successive local authorities has been crucial to the development of the orchestra and it gratefully acknowledges the support given by Perth and Kinross Council.

Every family is encouraged to have at least one member become a patron. In addition, the orchestra greatly appreciates the patronage of former players and their families, as well as many local businesses, for their continued support.

Through attendance at concerts and by taking an active part in fund raising events, patrons help create a secure environment in which the young musicians can develop.

We invite all who have enjoyed a long association with the orchestra, whether as playing members or as patrons, to renew their annual subscription. New members are warmly welcomed.
