Welcome to the website of the Friends of Southampton Youth Orchestras (FSYO)

The Southampton Youth Orchestras offer children and young adults a fantastic opportunity to develop as musicians — from very new players aged 8 or 9, through to sixth-formers of Grade 8 standard and beyond.

FSYO is a charitable organisation that has supported these orchestras since 1971. We fund instruments, music, tours, residential weekends and specialist coaching. Find out more about FSYO
