eyo - Ealing Youth Orchestra

eyo is an independent youth orchestra, self-financed, run by and for a membership that's drawn from a wide area of West London. Its 80 players are aged between 13 and 19 years and are drawn from over 25 different secondary schools. The orchestra exists to give young players the experience of rehearsing and performing music to a high standard. Its concert programme of full symphonic pieces, concerti and repertoire for chamber orchestra brings eyo players into contact with a broad range of works and has produced many notable musical highlights. The current music director is Leon Gee.
