"Vermont Youth Orchestra with Trey Anastasio and Ernie Stires" is a live concert video featuring a performance by the Vermont Youth Orchestra led by conductor Troy Peters along with Phish leader Trey Anastasio and his mentor Ernie Stires. Anastasio studied composition and arranging under Stires while he was a student at Goddard College in Vermont. The concert is divided into four movements featuring compositions written and arranged by Anastasio and Stires.

The concert's centerpiece is a performance of the Phish song "Guyute," which also contains elements of another Phish song, "My Friend, My Friend." The previous night's performance of "Guyute" from February 3, 2001, in Troy, NY was eventually released on the Phish tribute album "Sharin' in the Groove".

The concert was only released on VHS videotape and is currently out of print.
