HomeWhat We DoYoung People's String Orchestra
Young People's String Orchestra

The Young People’s String Orchestra, conducted by Marta Zurad, is known as one of the finest children's orchestras in the New England area.  This young orchestra performs major repertoire from the standard string orchestra literature while learning the skills needed for excellent orchestral playing.  It is an energetic and collaborative ensemble that emphasizes teamwork and leadership development.  These young musicans challenge each other at every rehearsal as they learn the joys of hard work and dedication to excellence.  Young People’s String Orchestra has performed at such venues as Symphony Hall and Boston University's Tsai Performance Center and has been featured as part of WCRB's Cartoon Festival.
