Welcome

Performing energetic classical pieces, the Grand Junction Youth Orchestra invites students (of any age) in the Grand Valley of Western Colorado to participate in a rewarding orchestral experience.

The Spring 2019 GJYO season is finished. Please check back as information on the Fall 2019 season will be posted later this summer. During concert seasons, rehearsals are generally held on Thursdays from 6:30-7:45 pm at Connection Church (655 N. 1st Ave, Grand Junction). Each season concludes with a finale concert, free and available to the public.

Congratulations to the committed and talented musicians who participated in our Spring 2019 Season. Below is a short slideshow and video from the recent season of the orchestra.

To inquire about joining the Grand Junction Youth Orchestra, sponsoring a scholarship, or for any other information, please contact us here.  You may also reach out to Director Gretchen Stanton or Coordinator Rebekah Zeerip via text or phone call.  We are excited to grow the GJYO and make this wonderful opportunity available to as many learning musicians as possible, so we welcome your inquiries!  Also, don’t forget to check out other pictures and videos from previous seasons here.
