UPSO presents Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra

Boston Philharmonic Orchestra

In glowing review after glowing review, critics praise the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra for upending expectations, citing a musical maturity that belies the performers’ tender ages. Undeniably true, yet a strong argument could be made that the BPYO excels not in spite of but because of their youth. They bring a vitality, enthusiasm and delight in discovery that only those experiencing something for the first time can produce. Think about the powerful impact of first love. 

On June 12th, this 120-member orchestra of talented 12 to 21-year olds—led by its co-founder and guiding force Benjamin Zander—embarks on a 15-day, multi-city tour, performing in some of the most storied concert halls in South Africa.
