Concert in the Teatro La Caridad

July 12, 2016

The audience was the best yet! Packed house, everyone dressed up for the occasion, and extremely enthusiastic.

One local audience member who spoke fantastic English said that he has seen five youth orchestra perform at the Teatro La Caridad in Santa Clara, and the the Oakland Symphony Youth Orchestra was the most refined, energetic, and ambitious with regard to programming. What a compliment!
