NYO-USA: Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet

In preparation for their European tour, NYO-USA worked with choreographer Liz Lerman to explore movement and musical expression in the context of storytelling. The orchestra's percussion section and orchestral keyboardist discuss the importance of their roles in how Prokofiev utilizes the orchestra to tell the story of Romeo and Juliet.

Each summer, Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute brings together the brightest young players from across the country to form the National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America. Following a two-week training residency with leading professional orchestra musicians, these remarkable teenagers not only have the opportunity to play on the famed stage of Carnegie Hall but then embark on a tour to some of the great music capitals of the world, while serving as dynamic musical ambassadors.
