What is NOFA? 

National Orchestra for All (NOFA) is a non-auditioned, free, inclusive national youth orchestra. We welcome young people aged 11-18 from all backgrounds, with any level of musical ability, playing any instrument!  

 

NOFA is a two-year programme (2023-2024) where young people attend in-person residentials and digital events.  

 

Young people who take part in NOFA 

  • play incredible music with other young people from all walks of life 
  • learn, have fun, and develop both musically and socially 
  • improve their wellbeing and confidence within a supportive, safe and nurturing environment 

 

How can you apply?
