YouTube Symphony Orchestra plays Carnegie Hall
I stumbled across this link to the inaugural YouTube Symphony Orchestra, which will be playing at Carnegie Hall on April 15th. Young artists from around the world auditioned by submitting a video through YouTube. A committee selected the finalists, who were announced in March. Tomorrow they start rehearsals.
In an associated article featured in Time, YouTube (and its owners at Google) initiated this project, and they’ve managed to accumulate several well-respected symphony orchestras as sponsors. Hopefully it will shine a spotlight on classical artists and classical music in general, and bring together a new generation of previously disparate artists and music lovers in the digital world.
