The Association of Angkor Youth Orchestra (ANYO) (established in 2006 or 2007) is a Cambodian orchestra for young people.[1][2][3] Its first performance was at the Angkor Wat temple complex.[2] It is the first establishment for orchestral classical music in Cambodia since the Sangkum Reahniyum Era (1953–1970). It is supervised by two musicians: Tep Kuntheareth and Ram Daravong.

Under the coordination of the Cambodian cabinet and with the support of Gunma Junior Orchestra and Shinichi Minami, ANYO has been receiving donations and grown gradually to become a chamber orchestra.

The previous headquarters of ANYO are at the Secondary School of Fine Arts (Cambodia). For current headquarters please check the external link.

ANYO is composed of Cambodian teachers (educated in the former USSR) and young musicians with a total number of around 60 or 70. Most of the musicians come from the Royal University of Fine Arts of Cambodia. Others pay to be taught music and are automatically included in ANYO. Instruments include violins, violas, cellos, double basses and clarinets.

ANYO is still recruiting new musicians and receiving new students. ANYO also holds regular annual performances.
