Orlando Youth Chamber Ensembles (OYCE)

Orlando Youth Chamber Ensembles (OYCE) is a Central Florida-based nonprofit organization dedicated to providing exceptional musical experiences for young musicians. We offer a diverse collection of ensembles, including orchestras, bands, and jazz groups, fostering artistic growth and collaboration among students from across the region.

OYCE serves students in grades 7-12, offering a supportive and enriching environment where they can develop their musical skills and build confidence. Our programs are designed to cater to a wide range of musical backgrounds and interests, from classical to contemporary.

What distinguishes OYCE is our commitment to accessible music education and performance opportunities. We partner with local organizations like the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra and the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts to provide our students with valuable experiences and exposure. Through our ensembles, students gain performance experience, develop teamwork skills, and cultivate a lifelong love of music. We are proud to be a vital part of the Central Florida youth arts community.

Founded in 2018, OYCE has quickly grown to serve over 100 students annually and has a staff of 10 dedicated individuals. We are committed to expanding our reach and impact, providing more opportunities for young musicians to thrive.
