The Greek Turkish Youth Orchestra was created by Mrs. Leni Konialidis, a dedicated music lover following a collaboration with the the University of Bilkent in Ankara. The orchestra was created in the summer of 2008 and performed in Turkey (Ankara and Istanbul) and in Greece (Athens: Odeon of Herodes Atticus; Patras: Roman Theatre). In the summer of 2009 Greek and Turkish musicians reunited once again with violinist Ilya Gringolts. The orchestra performed in Athens at The American College, in Katerini where it performed at the Dion Theater and in Kavala.
On September 3, 2010, the Greek Turkish Youth Orchestra gave an unprecedented –free of charge- concert in the atrium of the Acropolis museum. The next day the orchestra travelled to Nafplion where it performed the same programme on the Arvanitias square.
In August 2011 the Greek Turkish Youth Orchestra gave a unique performance at the ancient fortress of Sigacik in Seferehisar. In September 2011 the GTYO performed in the frame of the famous Dimitra Festival in Thessaloniki. In 2012 the orchestra was hosted by Turkey in Cesme and Seferihisar.
