The National Youth Orchestra of China (NYO-China, Chinese: 中华青少年交响乐团) is a full symphony youth orchestra composed of approximately 100 Chinese musicians aged 14 to 21 years old. Students from all over China audition to participate in a two-week training residency before performing alongside a renowned soloist and conductor in premier venues throughout the world.[1]
The program is provided at no cost to students; all expenses, including travel, housing, and meals, are covered by the organization's supporters.[2]
NYO-China was founded in late 2015 with its first residency and concert tour, featuring Yuja Wang and Olga Kern, taking place in July 2017.[3] Its subsequent seasons included a reduced-scale Chamber Series in 2018 and a Europe Tour in 2019 with Garrick Ohlsson.[4] Ludovic Morlot served as the orchestra's conductor for both its 2017 and 2019 seasons.[5]
