New Director of the Empire State Youth Orchestra

Meet the newest addition to our classical music community: Carlos Agreda, who is originally from Colombia, begins his tenure with the Empire State Youth Orchestra this weekend in Troy. He says, “I am passionate about symphonic music and its power to make society better. I am very excited and honored to take on this responsibility of serving the region through music education. ESYO has a particularly important role because our young musicians are not only future audience members in the area, they are also building our future society and broadening the perception of quality in the arts.”
