A longtime champion of music in the lives of young people, violinist Midori established this program to enhance the American youth orchestra experience. Through activities ranging from public concerts, workshops, music advocacy and more, the program seeks to cultivate the connection between a youth orchestra and its local professional orchestra, as well as to improve relationships with visiting artists, orchestra administration and the community-at-large.
The application deadline is February 15, 2008 for a residency in the 2009/2010 season.
