Twilite Youth Orchestra (TYO) is a non-profit institution founded in August 2004 by Addie MS, the conductor of Twilite Orchestra. It is established for the youth capable in playing orchestral instruments and aiming to gain more experience on playing together in a symphonic orchestra. The members of TYO consist of teenagers and young adults aged 10 to 25 years-old, selected through an audition process.

The routine activities of TYO are regular rehearsals held on Sundays, school concerts, and public concerts. In school concerts, TYO performs in the school of its members, held twice a year, without any fees charged. Public concerts are held at the end of every semester’s program, and in these concerts, tickets are sold for public. These activities of TYO are intended to motivate the youth to grow more appreciation of symphonic music, as well as to grow potential talents of TYO members, self-confidence, teamwork, diversity appreciation, and to hone the musical skills individually and as an orchestral group.

Currently TYO is under the guidance of Eric Awuy as conductor and program director.
