Thank you for this outstanding story about the Minnesota Youth Symphonies. This is an organization that has contributed to the musical growth of literally thousands of children in it's 37 year history. My children were fortunate enough to go through the program, which not only challenged them musically, but also gave them important life's skills as well. Thank you TPT for airing this wonderful series and thank you MYS for all that you do for the musical community!
