The Göppingen Youth Symphony Orchestra is part of the ensemble programme offered by the Municipal Youth Music School in Göppingen. It has won numerous competitions and is regularly invited to participate in international festivals. The Göppingen Youth Orchestra was awarded the gold medal at the IX New York International Music Festival in Carnegie Hall. The ensemble has been featured on radio and television on several occasions. Since 1989, its conductor has been Martin Gunkel, the city's music director.  The ensemble aims to promote music among children and young people and offer them the opportunity to perform challenging orchestral works by rehearsing traditional and modern orchestral pieces. In addition, winners of the national ‘Jugend musiziert’ competition are given the opportunity to perform as soloists at concerts.  Concert tours and international youth exchanges have taken the Göppingen Youth Symphony Orchestra to Spain, France, Norway, Hungary, Austria, Italy, Latvia, Great Britain and the USA on several occasions.
