The '''India National Youth Orchestra''' is the national [[youth orchestra]] of [[India]].

== History ==<br />
The orchestra was formed by Vijay Upadhyaya. He believed that there was a limitation in solo [[Musical repertoire|repertoire]] and gave a lesson to the orchestra such that children of all ages and classes could collaborate effectively. He enlisted children who played Western instruments, making up most of the orchestra. In January 2011, Upadhyaya held auditions followed by a ten-day workshop in [[Kolkata]] to train candidates. A concert was held on 26 April 2011 at [[Kala Mandir]]. The program contained string serenades written by [[Elgar]] and [[Tchaikovsky]], the ''[[Simple Symphony (Britten)|Simple Symphony]]'' by [[Benjamin Britten]] and Concerto in A Minor by [[Antonio Vivaldi]].<br />
