David Loebel, Associate Director of Orchestras, opens the Youth Philharmonic Orchestra expanded season with Bernstein's glittering Overture to Candide.

The brilliant young cellist Sasha Scolnik-Brower, a student of Natasha Brofsky, is soloist in Elgar's profound and deeply moving Cello Concerto. And the program is completed with Tchaikovsky's passionately dramatic Symphony No. 6 the 'Pathetique.'

Join this dazzling young orchestra of musicians age 13–18 who play as if the most important thing in the world to them is music.
