Yesterday, the Community Advocate posted a story that included and interview with a Southborough violinist. The Algonquin junior is a member of the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (BPYO) that performed in a European tour this summer.
The CA writes:
Southborough junior Aaron Wu and Westborough senior Jasmine Liu were violinists in the orchestra, which featured musicians under the age of 25 and played five concerts. Led by conductor Benjamin Zander, the tour stretched from Basel, Switzerland, to Berlin, Germany.
“We got to show people that we’re a youth orchestra, but that doesn’t mean we have to sound like a youth orchestra. We got to share our experience with the world. We got to share the music that we make. We got to show people in Europe that there are people in America who can do great things,” Wu said.
