Founded in 2022, the Salzburg Children's & Youth Philharmonic Orchestra is aimed at music-loving children and young people aged 7 to 18 who would like to gain their first orchestral experience and are already receiving instrumental lessons (privately or at music education institutions such as the Mozarteum or Musikum).
