OUR ORCHESTRAS
TYO MUSICAL EXPERIENCES

SYMPHONY RETREAT
Our annual Symphony Retreat is a meaningful weekend where Symphony students come together for intensive rehearsals, team-building activities, and plenty of fun. Held in the heart of the Big Bend at Realife Blue Springs, the retreat strengthens musicianship, builds lifelong friendships, and culminates in a concert at Chipola College.
​
More than just a weekend away, the retreat sets the tone for the entire season—building the trust, focus, and unity that fuel our orchestra’s growth all year long.

SMALL ENSEMBLES
TYO’s Small Ensemble Program brings young musicians together in intimate groups to explore chamber music and grow as confident, collaborative performers. Whether in string quartets or wind and brass groups, students learn to lead, listen, and create music as a team.
These ensembles perform each semester and often bring their talents into the community.

CONCERTO COMPETITION
Each season, one exceptional TYO student earns the unforgettable opportunity to take center stage as a soloist with the Symphony Orchestra at our final concert. The Concerto Competition showcases the talent, dedication, and artistry of our young musicians, offering them a professional-level performance experience.
