Johannesburg Youth Orchestra
This vibrant orchestra was formed in 1976 and is the company’s flagship. 
The orchestra is conducted by Adam Golding and Timon Wapenaar. It is a full symphonic orchestra, catering for high school students playing stringed, wind and percussion instruments. It consists of 75 members this year.
The group’s repertoire includes popular contemporary, light as well as serious classical music. The Johannesburg Youth Orchestra is well known throughout the city and even further afield.
It maintains a consistently high standard and with every new year, an increasing number of young musicians from affiliated musical organisations achieve membership.
If you have achieved Grade 5 or higher and would like to audition to be part of this group, we would love to hear from you.
