The Northland Symphony Youth Orchestra is an auditioned ensemble for students up to twelfth grade.
Members play advanced repertoire in a full orchestra setting. Our ensemble provides opportunities to perform with peers from throughout the Kansas City metropolitan area. Our students are more prepared for their post-high school ensemble experiences.
It’s about making great music while having fun.
