*Thesis: referring to the Belmont High School Senior Thesis, an 8 month long project beginning with reading 4 books by a chosen author.
In 24 hours I'll be arriving in Purchase, New York for the residency portion of the inaugural season of the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America (or NYO, for ease!). After our residency, where 120 players rehearse together, live together, and become an orchestra, we go on tour with Maestro Valery Gergiev, with concerts in Washington D.C., Moscow, St. Petersburg, and London. For full information about the orchestra, visit the website at http://www.carnegiehall.org/Education/National-Youth-Orchestra-of-the-United-States-of-America/ and follow the NYO-USA facebook page for updates and pictures during the program! In addition to this blog, I might be blogging a bit for the NYO blog, so keep an eye out for that as well- I'll link to it here.
As for the heat, the travel, and the one suitcase restriction, I respond with my grandmother's reaction to a rock in her way on the sidewalk today:
"I don't like you. I don't like you at all!" and brushed it aside.
Stay tuned for updates on my adventures- and I'll try to stay tuned to A442.
