Music Director

The Denver Young Artists Orchestra (DYAO), Colorado’s premier youth symphony, seeks an inspiring Music Director to lead one of the nation’s most respected youth orchestral programs. For nearly 50 years, DYAO has nurtured exceptional young musicians, many of whom have gone on to top conservatories and major orchestras, while reimagining what symphonic music can be for today’s world.

This role is ideal for a dynamic artistic leader who combines ambitious musicianship with a deep commitment to youth music education, collaboration, and community engagement. If you are excited to shape exceptional performances, mentor the next generation of musicians, and play an active role in advancing an organization with a powerful mission and legacy, we invite you to apply.
