YOCJ consists of over 200 musicians who play in the Woodwind Choir, Wind Symphony, String Preparatory, Pro Arte and Symphonic Orchestras as well as two levels of brass, percussion and saxophone ensembles.

Applicants must take private lessons and be members of their school bands or orchestras. Home-schoolers are invited to audition as well.
