Triangle Youth Music (Group of Instrumental Ensembles)

Founded: Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

The Philharmonic Association seeks to foster the love of great music in young musicians by sponsoring eight musical ensembles. These ensembles include three full symphony orchestras and three string orchestras that study and perform great classical music. The different orchestras seek to provide opportunities to 4th through 12th grade musicians of various levels of proficiency. The Triangle Youth Philharmonic, (TYP) , is the most advanced group; the Triangle Youth Symphony, (TYS) , is for moderately advanced musicians; the Triangle Youth Orchestra, (TYO) , is for intermediate students with less orchestral experience; the Triangle Youth Sring Sinfonia, (Sinfonia), and the Triangle Youth String Orchestras, (TYSO) , are for young string players to develop their ensemble skills. The PA also sponsors the Triangle Youth Jazz Ensemble, (TYJE), and Triangle Youth Jazz Ensemble II, (TYJE II) , for advanced middle and high school musicians interested in studying and performing the best of the big band jazz literature. Hugh Partridge is Artistic Director of Philharmonic Association.
