For Orchestras
For Musicians
Younison is the first global platform that reimagines how orchestral auditions are prepared, evaluated, and managed. Built by musicians for musicians, it creates a fair, transparent, and efficient audition process, benefiting both candidates seeking opportunities and orchestras searching for the right talent.
Younison reimagines how auditions are published, prepared, evaluated, and managed - globally. We create fair, transparent, and efficient audition procedures, we help musicians find opportunities, orchestras search for the best fit, competitions identify the most promising candidates, and educational institutions reach out to global talent.
Inconsistent applications: CVs arrive in different formats and audition recordings vary in quality, making it nearly impossible to compare candidates fairly and efficiently.
Unreliable recordings: easily available techniques have eroded trust in authenticity, making it difficult to rely on online pre-selection. Application videos are often edited and don’t reflect actual abilities.
Failing auditions: Unreliable application recordings lead to inviting too many and not the best candidates, resulting in repeated processes, unfilled positions, and high costs – for both organizations and musicians
Economic, psychological and environmental sustainability: High cost for musicians for preparation, travel and accommodation, a highly stressful environment (often countered with medication); orchestras, competitions and conservatories restricting their global outreach
Fragmented workflows: While publishing open positions and receiving applications is often already handled on platforms, assigning internal juries and committees, evaluation against different criteria, voting in life audition rounds and candidate’s advancement, feedback management and documentation still are mostly done on paper.
Missing out the human factor: By assessing only technical and musical abilities, skills that really matter are not tested – like adaptability, team spirit, leadership ambition, social intelligence.
Independent evaluation: It’s very difficult for musicians, especially at an early stage of their careers, to get unbiased feedback and a reliable assessment on where they stand on an international level – so they often feel lost regarding the best next steps for them to take, which auditions to target, and where to put their focus in the most effective way.
Younison creates a safe, fair, transparent, and efficient audition process – for musicians seeking opportunities and institutions searching for the right talent.

Younison user
Enric Moya
Violin I · La Monnaie Symphony Orchestra (Brussels)
"Younison’s guidance it’s a true before-and-after. When I was preparing for my first orchestra auditions, I had no real idea of the best approach and felt quite lost. Recording through Younison and receiving feedback from top orchestra musicians gives me clarity on which auditions I’m ready for, and where I need to improve."
Jury Member
Céline Moinet
Solo Oboe · Staatskapelle Dresden
"As an oboist, I know how much depends on subtle tonal colors and phrasing details that often get lost in uneven or heavily produced recordings. In youth orchestra or academy selections with so many applicants, this makes it hard to judge fairly and with confidence. Younison brings a new level of consistency and transparency: I can see the clues of the true personality of each player and make decisions that feel both fair and meaningful."

"As a Concertmaster and jury member, I find Younison’s verified, unedited recordings invaluable. They let us hear the real musician, without doubts about authenticity, and make the evaluation process clearer, faster, and far more reliable. Younison is the missing link our industry has needed for so long!"
