Let’s celebrate Europe in America with Music!

“For the very first time in her history, Poland has assumed the Presidency of the European Union for the next 6 months. During this period the responsibility of great challenges lies with Poland. Europe is a splendid and diverse culture, and an inspiration for many others. We invite you to enjoy the most sublime European music played by the American Youth Symphony. We present a grand classical piece by Ravel, interpreted with freshness by young Polish artist Leszek Możdżer, and conducted by Maestro Alexander Treger. This combination will bring together the spirit of Europe, its history, dynamism, and experience”.
