New Youth Orchestra Initiative to Match Composers and Orchestras in Collaboration

The Youth Orchestra Commissioning Initiative is designed to create remote performances of new works by women and composers of color. The project hopes to connect young musicians with new music by composers who will write short chamber pieces for groups of various instrumentation to rehearse and perform virtually from the young musicians’ homes.
