The week of August 6th, students from across the world gathered at Carnegie Hall for World Orchestra Week. The festival featured more than 700 students from 38 countries.<\/p>\n

Driving the news:<\/strong> Earlier this month, New York City\u2019s Carnegie Hall hosted its first ever World Orchestra Week<\/a>. Hundreds of students from countries including Afghanistan, China, Israel, Nigeria, Palestine, Ukraine, and Venezuela gathered to collaborate and perform at Carnegie Hall.<\/p>\n

Each night, a different orchestra took centre stage at Carnegie. Top conductors graced the podium, including celebrity Venezuelan conductor Gustavo Dudamel who conducted the National Children\u2019s Symphony of Venezuela as well as a mass \u201cplay-in\u201d featuring all 700 young musicians.<\/p>\n

Digging deeper:<\/strong> Many of the students who converged in New York were given a respite from their lives in war-torn countries in the Global South. The young musicians expressed in messages and interviews<\/a> the difficulties of living in undemocratic countries lacking opportunities for female and female-identifying people as well as people of diverse socioeconomic backgrounds.<\/p>\n
