Our symphony orchestra musicians are superstars in their own right who have performed on Academy Award winning soundtracks, received top honors in the industry, and played with internationally renowned artists and orchestras. While only one or two of our orchestra musicians might normally be highlighted as a soloist during a normal concert season, this year we are lucky enough to able to shine a spotlight on several of our musical wunderkinds.
