LA Youth Orchestra concerts Sunday and Monday Dec. 13, 14
Posted on December 11, 2009 with 0 commentsAlmost 90 students from over 60 LA area schools perform Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain, Beethoven's Egmont Overture, Copland's Down a Country Lane, and more. The LA Youth Orchestra is an incredibly diverse group of students from elementary to high school ages who dedicate Sundays to rehearsing classical music together. Their stories are fascinating and inspiring. They include a flutist who is blind and a 13 year old who attends college.
