CANNON VALLEY YOUTH ORCHESTRA
CANNON VALLEY YOUTH ORCHESTRA
Cannon Valley Youth Orchestra loves to work and play with young musicians, advancing artistic skills and studying exciting music together. We invite string players with at least 1 year of experience (ages 8-18) to bring your violins, violas, cellos, and basses and join our ensembles.
Based in Northfield, Minnesota, CVYO's 3 orchestras draw adventurous kids from around the Cannon Valley who enjoy playing beyond their home studios and school orchestras.
Inspired and instructed by our professional conductor and an array of guest artists, they tackle challenging techniques and fun repertoire together.
NOTES
FALL 2025
Join us! Our fall session starts with two Audition Days so that our Music Director can place students in the appropriate orchestra. These will be Saturday, August 23 from 1-4pm and Thursday, Sept. 4 from 5-8pm. We will have a sign up for a 10 minute slot... just email us for the link. See our Auditions page for the music your student should prepare! This is meant to be a positive, encouraging experience. Our first rehearsals will begin Tuesday, Sept. 9 and finish with the concert on Saturday, Nov. 15 at 3pm.
