Background information
The New Streetly Youth Orchestra is a non-profit making association of young musicans gathered together to provide the opportunity to develop their orchestral talents.
The orchestra plays a wide repertoire of music from screen, stage and popular classics.
It originated from an ensemble founded in 1991 by two Streetly music teachers who wanted to give young musicians a chance to develop their musical talents. They remained the Musical Directors of the orchestra until December 1997 when they stood down in order to pursue other interests. The running of the orchestra was handed over to a management committee, currently chaired by Ian Myatt, and re-named The New Streetly Youth Orchestra.
The orchestra is keen to support local charities and community events, please contact us if you’d like to partner with us in any activity.
Since April 2011 The New Streetly Youth Orchestra has been the lead organisation for the Sutton Coldfield Arts Forum, Made in Sutton.
