Oklahoma Youth Philharmonic (OYP) is a full orchestra and is made up of students who have typically never played in a full orchestra. These students are generally at the upper-intermediate and lower-advanced levels of music-making. OYP works on acclimating musicians to the full orchestra setting while also working on ensemble balance, intonation and achieving a high level of musical integrity. Repertoire includes many standard masterworks, expertly arranged educational compositions and contemporary pieces.
