Answer:

What is Singapore National Youth Orchestra mean?

The Singapore National Youth Orchestra (SNYO) is the national youth orchestra of Singapore. It is recognised by the Ministry of Education as a National Project of Excellence and a key development programme for talented young musicians. Since 1 January 2016, the Singapore Symphony Orchestra (SSO) has assumed management and operational responsibility for the SNYO, taking over the reins from the Ministry of Education.

The SNYO is currently led by Principal Conductor Joshua Tan. It is made up of over 200 young musicians between the ages of 10 and 21. Entry into the SNYO is by a rigorous audition process. Members studying in mainstream secondary schools will have their participation in the SNYO recognised in lieu of a school-based Co-Curricular Activity (CCA).

The SNYO aims to focus on developing the most talented classical musicians and building a vibrant music community for Singapore. The SNYO hopes its future graduates will excel at the technical playing of their instrument, hone their sense of artistic expression, develop strong character, and develop a lifelong love for music.

The SNYO has its own SNYO Studios with 6 rooms for booking in the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) Tower Block along Bencoolen Street. Rehearsal sessions are usually held twice a week for the SNYO (Thursday night, Saturday afternoon) and once a week for the SNYS (Saturday morning), usually in the Orchestra Studio, with sectionals held across all studios.

The SNYO was slated to give the Singapore live premiere of Disney Fantasia on 17 and 18 March 2020, but the concert was postponed to an unconfirmed date due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
