Results of the International Lutosławski Youth Orchestra 2026 Auditions
We are pleased to announce the results of the online auditions for the 14th edition of the International Lutosławski Youth Orchestra.
This year’s recruitment process was the largest in the project’s history, with a record-breaking 551 applications submitted. Such extraordinary interest made the selection process particularly challenging for the tutors of ILYO 2026. The artistic level of the submitted recordings was exceptionally high, with nearly 7 candidates competing for each place in the orchestra on average.
We warmly congratulate everyone who has been selected to join ILYO 2026. To those whose names do not appear on the lists below, we would like to thank you for taking part in the auditions and warmly encourage you to apply again next year.
Thank you to all musicians for every application submitted.
