Give a One Off Donation Give a Regular Donation
We are collecting funds to help with providing our young musicians with the following:
  • Tutorials with leading South Australian musicians from the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra. And the Elder Conservatorium of Music, The University of Adelaide.
  • Scholarships to pay part or full membership fees for disadvantaged or talented young musicians..
  • Discounted concert tickets for regional school and public concerts, so that as many people as possible can afford to attend our concerts.
  • Touring orchestras to regional South Australia to provide people with the rare opportunity to attend an orchestral concert.
  • Presentation of our annual concert program, which allows our young musicians to gain invaluable performance skills.
  • Purchasing of orchestral instruments such as timpani, contra-bassoon and tubular bells which young musicians are unable to afford to buy. This will help save AdYO significant costs with regards to hiring instruments.

More about AdYO

Established in 2001, the Adelaide Youth Orchestra (AdYO) is a thriving and strong musical and educational force for young Adelaide musicians. AdYO is committed to musical excellence and the showcasing of emerging South Australian musicians between the ages of 8 and 25.

Each week the organisation caters for over 170 young musicians in three ensembles, Adelaide Youth Orchestra, Adelaide Youth Sinfonie and Adelaide Youth Strings.

AdYO offers young musicians the opportunity to flourish in a vibrant and exciting musical environment, developing orchestral, musical, and team skills with their peers. They are encourage to perform to the highest standard, fostering lasting friendships and making great music. Each orchestral member has the opportunity to work with professional tutors and teachers from the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra, the Elder Conservatorium of Music and other professional institutions in SA.

AdYO is developing significant relationships with members of SA's music and arts community. In addition to the core artistic program, we're now seeing a healthy exchange of ideas and collaborations with theatre groups, fusion bands and composers.
