Due to COVID-19, the ASYO will be accepting video recorded auditions via the Acceptd platform instead of live in-person auditions.



Submit your audition electronically to audition for the Alabama Symphony Youth Orchestra (ASYO) and the Music Opportunity Program’s Alabama Youth Symphony! Each year, we partner with the Music Opportunity Program’s Alabama Youth Symphony (AYS) for auditions. Directors from both programs hear each audition and place the applicants in the ensemble that is the best fit.



Auditions are open to students ages 12-22 who play one of the following instruments: Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass, Harp, Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon, French Horn, Trumpet, Trombone, Tuba, Percussion

Please note that while we wish we had a spot for everyone, auditioning does not guarantee a spot in either ensemble.
