JOIN THE DYO!

Come join the DYO in 2025! Auditions open on Saturday 1st February. Information on this year’s audition requirements can be found here. We encourage all young musicians, who play an orchestral instrument at a level of around Grade 6 or above, to audition for the Dunedin Youth Orchestra. Players need to be at least of secondary school age, and under 25 years old (at the start of the year). All previous members must reaudition if they wish to be considered for a place in the orchestra in the forthcoming year. If you require any further information please contact us at [email protected]
