Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra Autumn Concert Tickets

The Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra (COYO) brings together roughly 100 talented young musicians from northern Ohio and nearby states for a season of concert experiences under the umbrella of the Cleveland Orchestra family. Founded in 1986, COYO serves as a key stepping stone for emerging orchestral artists, offering three subscription concerts at Severance Music Center and multiple outreach performances each season. For 2025–26, James Feddeck serves as Principal Conductor & Musical Advisor, guiding a program that showcases both veteran repertoire and fresh, student-led responses to classical masterworks.

COYO’s Autumn Concerts at Severance have become a tradition, with performances in 2023 and 2024 featuring works by Brahms, Sigfúsdóttir, Piston, Copland, and Rachmaninoff. The ensemble’s reach extends beyond the concert hall through outreach engagements, helping to cultivate a lifelong connection between young musicians and their community.

When you’re looking to secure your seats for a COYO performance, you’re tapping into a trusted part of the Cleveland Orchestra ecosystem—an accessible, high-caliber musical experience suitable for families, students, and classical music fans alike.

COYO also engages with its closely related COYC (Cleveland Orchestra Youth Chorus), which maintains an active presence on Instagram at @clevelandorchestrayc. For official news, programs, and event details, COYO shares updates through The Cleveland Orchestra’s channels and on its own official site. If you’re planning to follow or attend, keep an eye on the schedule for upcoming COYO + COYC collaborations, including projects announced for February 22 in collaboration with COYO’s season partners at Severance Music Center.
