Alliance Youthful Chamber Orchestra

Alliance Youthful Chamber Orchestra A string orchestra with players of all ages & varied skill levels from various geographic areas.(Stark, Carroll, Summit, Portage, Mahoning Counties)

The Alliance Youthful Chamber Orchestra was created by Xirlita Oliveira and the late Betty Onyett, in the fall of 1992 originally as the Youth Chamber Orchestra. As it has evolved into a more dynamic organization with its identity rooted in Alliance, Ohio, the name has changed to the Alliance Youthful Chamber Orchestra, or AYCO. The orchestra is composed of musicians with varied skill levels and

from geographic areas. The group is open to elementary through high school ages and adults who play violin, viola, cello, and string bass. The repertoire ranges from Classical to Movie Themes and Broadway melodies. Orchestra goals are:
Enjoyment of playing together
An introduction to fine music
An ensemble experience
Musical guidance in an environment that is relaxed and non-competitive.
