About

Today’s exceptional young performers all play instruments you might hear in a school band! We hear about the kids cartoon that motivated a Georgia teen to pick up the French horn, the New England brass player with the fortitude to lug around two tubas at once, a bassoonist on a mission to share the true range of her instrument, and a percussionist from South Carolina who loves playing Bach on the marimba.
