Perth Youth Orchestra (UK) ^NGOs

Perth Youth Orchestra was founded in 1962 by two Perth musicians, Louis Barnett and John Davie, with the support of a small number of parents.  It gave its first concert on 25th June 1964.  The orchestra is a registered charity in Scotland.  PYO is sustained both by the young players desire to excel and by their determination to succeed.  The orchestra regularly performs in Perth, at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and at international festivals.
