“It’s that time of year again! Time to prepare for our next season. YOGC just closed out its season with a bang and next year is sure to be full of just as much energy. Register to audition and become a part of the YOGC family!” - Christopher Walton, Interim Executive Director, YOGC.

Since 1993, the Youth Orchestra of Greater Columbus has been teaching the area’s most talented young musicians. Led by nationally-awarded Music Director and Conductor Jim Palmer, YOGC maintains the only symphonic orchestral opportunity in the region for children; a string orchestra; a chamber group program; a non-adjudicated music festival provided at no cost to local public school music programs; and a week-long summer string camp focused on alternative genres of music and playing styles.
