[quote=Anonymous]My child didn't audition for MCYO last year as we were not in town during their audition dates.  So I can't accurately describe the differences.  This year my child auditioned for both (this year their audition dates were held the same week), and will find out results next week.

Our experience with PVYO last year was good.  My child enjoyed playing with a group of people who had similar interest/ability/motivation (compared to the school orchestra).  They played more difficult and challenging music than they do at the school level, which definitely helps them grow, learn and stretch.  There wasn't a lot of "friend-making".  There really was no time to get to know your fellow orchestra members.  By the time class was over, most people are looking to get out and get home as it is a school night.  The one criticism I have is that there was no individual feedback - what do you need to work on, are you meeting expectations, etc.  I have no idea how my child was viewed by the conductor last year.  (good or bad)
