FRENCH HORN MASTER CLASS WITH JULIE LANDSMAN

The Santa Fe Youth Symphony Association was delighted and honored to present an enriching opportunity for Santa Fe youth to learn from a musical master.

Inspired by Masters is a new project of SFYSA to bring professional musical artists to work with New Mexico's youth, share their musical excellence, and inspire our next generation.

On Wednesday, December 28, Julie spent 90 minutes with 15 young musicians from New Mexico teaching exercises from the Caruso technique. All-State winners from this year and last year played solos for her and she worked with them individually. Adult French Horn players, and community members observed the class and inspiring exchange at the Santa Fe Youth Symphony's rehearsal space. Kids and adults alike were inspired and delighted.
