The Mystery theme? Youth Symphonies!
As students and teachers get back to school, WXXI Classical shines a light on the orchestras offering kids the chance to make music. The challenge for you will be to identify a city that's home to a great youth orchestra based on a geographical clue. (Also, see Mona's profile in City magazine of Jake Tanaguchi, the newly appointed Assistant Conductor of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra and Music Director of the Rochester Philharmonic Youth Orchestra. It starts on page 44 of City's September fall guide.)
