A Message from our President, Lynn Hutchinson


Founded in 1965 by Glenn Mallory, the HPYO has enjoyed a close partnership with the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestrafor over 45 years. The youth orchestra is coached by an enthusiastic faculty of Hamilton Philharmonic musicians.

The orchestra is comprised of young musicians aged 14 to 23 from Hamilton and surrounding communities. They come from all areas in the region, and from a wide variety of backgrounds.

Our musical director & conductor Paul McCulloch is an HPYO alumnus who holds degrees from McGill and U of T in cello performance and orchestral conducting. He has also studied conducting in Italy with the Institut Musical de Provence-Aubagne and the Accadmia Musicale Chigiana in Siena, Italy.

Tim White is the conductor of the Wind Ensemble. Mr. White is currently on faculty at Brock and McMaster Universities and has been a brass and wind coach for the HPYO for a number of years.

This ensemble development will enrich the musicality of the orchestra and prepare a broader group of wind musicians for the symphonic experience.

Combined, both conductors will raise the bar for symphonic and ensemble presentations, while enhancing the musical experience for all youth.

Let us be one of your Charities

Our mission is to be the foremost student based symphony orchestra in the Greater Hamilton Region.
