Reconnect. Relive. Replay.
Join us for REPLA.Y.O, a reunion concert orchestra for AYO alumni and friends.
Relive the magic of your Australian Youth Orchestra days! Not-so-direct from AYO’s 1984 Ambassador Tour, special guest conductor Guy Noble invites friends of AYO from decades past to join him for this special reunion at National Music Camp in 2025.
Over a warm, long weekend in Adelaide, you will reconnect with old friends, dust off your instrument and relive the joy of making music in the midst of an AYO program. You will witness today’s young talent making their start and perform a forgiving repertoire including Beethoven, Johann Strauss Jr, Tchaikovsky, and Jessica Wells.
