I like the idea of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra giving back to the community by having a young composers program to inspire children to be attracted to music at a young age. 12 year old Grace Moore was given the chance to lead the orchestra recently with a song that she composed as part of the Very Young Composers Program when her song that she composed was selected to be played at a venue in New York City recently. Grace is likely the happiest girl in the world having her dream to lead an orchestra in an outdoor venue since it is not everyday that young children are selected to lead musicians in an outdoor venue.

That is true since I thank my parents for taking me to orchestra concerts.

That sounds sweet. She gets a taste of first hand experience to be a conductor and to whet her appetite for her musical dreams in the future.
