About Us

NYRO

The National Youth Recorder Orchestras exist to promote recorder playing at a high level for young people aged 10-25.

We hold Recorder Days throughout the year, both face-to-face and online, and we run two residential courses, one at Easter and one in the Summer/

For our Courses and the Recorder Days, an examination certificate and/or an assessment certified by a teacher will be accepted. The Easter course ends with an informal concert and the Recorder Days with a half-hour play-through of the pieces studied. Family and friends are welcome to attend these.

The Summer Course culminates in a public concert and a professional recording.

You can also keep in touch with each other and with us through our Facebook and Twitter groups or our Facebook page.
