“To participate in YOA has been one of the most beautiful and enriching experiences of my life!!! To enjoy the company of happy and talented youth from all the corners of America and other places in the world, joined by excellent teachers and energetic and charismatic conductors who put together the best of their experiences with our youthful characters in vibration with the music, guided by hard work, friendship, and the joy of traveling across the globe, make this experience a permanent mark in my life.
Each tour offers new and valuable opportunities to grow as musicians, and above all as individuals. The reunion with old and new friends, the junction of cultures and their exchanges,the opportunity to play and get to know imposing and emblematic theaters from important cities of America, the arrivals and departures in the airports and hotels, the rehearsals, the parties, the reprimmendings, the love flings, and the best dancing and language lessons you can imagine!! In short… a series of events that nurishes day by day our experience of life and that impregnates us with the essence of YOA.” Guillermo Marín, Clarinet, Colombia
“Participar en la YOA ha sido una de las experiencias más bellas y enriquecedoras de mi vida!!! Disfrutar de la compañía de jóvenes alegres y talentosos de todos los rincones de América y otros lugares del mundo acompañados por excelentes profesores de fila y enérgicos y carismáticos directores que unen lo mejor de su experiencia a nuestra juventud para vibrar con la música, de la mano del trabajo duro, de la amistad y del goce de viajar por el mundo, hacen que esta vivencia se convierta en una marca imborrable en mi vida.
Cada Gira ofrece nuevas y valiosas oportunidades para crecer como músicos y sobre todo como personas. El encuentro de viejos y nuevos amigos, la confluencia de culturas y su intercambio, la oportunidad de tocar y conocer imponentes y emblemáticos teatros de importantes ciudades de América, las llegadas y salidas de los aeropuertos y hoteles, los ensayos, las fiestas, las llamadas de atención, los amoríos y las mejores clases de baile y de idiomas que puedas imaginar!! En fin....una serie de situaciones que nutren día a día nuestra experiencia de vida y que nos impregna con la esencia de la YOA.” Guillermo Marín, Clarinet, Colombia
“Agradezco de nuevo la oportunidad que me están dando de hacer parte de tan magnifica orquesta, esto para mi es un sueño hecho realidad, hace mucho quería hacer música con personas como las que encontre en la YOA. Estas personas son grandes de alma, corazon, personalidad, no violentos, amables. El trabajo de nosotros los artistas es mostrarle a las personas que se pueden hacer cosas buenas y con amor.” Pablo Moreno, Oboe, Colombia
“I am so thankful for the opportunity to be part of such a magnificent orchestra. For me this is a dream come true, so long ago I wanted to make music with people such as those that I found in YOA. These people are big souls, hearts, personalities, and gentle. The work of us as artists is to show people you can do good things and with love.” Pablo Moreno, Oboe, Colombia
“The creation of any new artistic enterprise is
always welcome. But when that project involves young people, the
meaning is much more than just music. Bridging the gaps that
differentiate cultures is best accomplished through music and the joy
of working with colleagues. This new endeavor (YOA) promises a great
deal for all of us. The young musicians will come away with strong
ideals and values. In turn, they will enrich all of our lives.”
- Leonard Slatkin, Music Director, National Symphony Orchestra
& YOA Artistic Advisory Committee Member
