Special thank you to Trio Ondata for visiting with our students and to Oak Ridge Civic Music Association for all of your involvement with our community high school orchestra students!

As part of ORCMA's Youth Art Collective educational initiatives, Trio Ondata visited Oak Ridge High School this week to lead a masterclass for the ORHS ORHS Orchestra students, and it was nothing short of extraordinary.

"This week, our ORHS students had the opportunity to sit with Trio Ondata, taking in tips, stories, and real-world insight from three of the best young artists in the country, sharing their craft right here in Oak Ridge."

We are so grateful to Michael Ferri, Miriam Liske-Doorandish, and guest pianist Tanya Gabrielian for giving our students so generously of their time, talent, and experience. This is exactly what ORCMA's education mission is all about: bringing world-class artistry into our community and into the lives of the next generation.

Now it's your turn. Join us today as Trio Ondata takes the stage for our season finale and invites all of Oak Ridge on a musical journey through Haydn, Shostakovich, Esmail, and Babajanian. 🎶

📅 Today — Saturday, May 16 at 3:00 p.m.
📍 First United Methodist Church, Oak Ridge

Special thanks to Lois McKeever for sponsoring this concert, and to the Tennessee Arts Commission for supporting the arts in our community.
