“When we performed, it was like telling the world that we work as a team and that we are unstoppable together. We can rule the world as an instrumental family. And everyone in the audience knew it.” Charlotte, violinist, age 10. #music #MusicEducation #orchestra

“Can you think of another human activity that requires your peak performance and others’ at exactly the same time? Maybe sports. But if you’re playing a symphony, you’ve got to keep it up for 60 minutes, and there are no timeouts.” Roy Niederhoffer Board Chair of Harmony Program
