Founding in 2002: Youth Music Partnership

 

SAMYO was founded in 2002 with partnership funding from national charity Youth Music. It is now one of eight National Youth Music Organisations (NYMOs), which bring talented young musicians together, on a national level, for inspirational training and advanced ensemble performance opportunities. “Youth Music is the leading UK charity using music to transform the lives of disadvantaged children and young people…Through music making, any young person, regardless of their background, should have opportunities to discover their creativity and fulfil their potential.” From www.youthmusic.org.uk The National Youth Music Organisations (NYMOs) bring talented young musicians together, on a national level, for inspirational training and advanced ensemble performance opportunities. They include national orchestras, choirs and bands across a range of genres (visit the link on the right to find out more about the individual NYMOs). Participation in NYMO activity is the pinnacle of many young musicians’ progression.
