The musical character
Triangle Youth Music (TYM) has been shaping young musicians in North Carolina since 1988, evolving from the Philharmonic Association into a thriving hub for orchestral and jazz artistry. Serving over 500 musicians annually, TYM fosters a wide range of ensembles, including three full orchestras—the Triangle Youth Philharmonic (TYP), TY Symphony, and the Triangle Youth Orchestra (TYO)—as well as several influential jazz groups such as TYJE, TYJO, and TYJB. In 1993, TYP was designated the official youth orchestra of the North Carolina Symphony, a testament to its high artistic standards and community impact.
