The NYO’s CEO and creative director, Sarah Alexander OBE, said: ‘We're stepping up to the response we received from young people. They’re showing us that they want to play and share orchestral music with their generation. This is driving us forward in a climate where fewer young people than ever before have the opportunity to experience orchestral music.’
