Spreading Joy Dec 10, 2024
"Fear No Music’s Young Composers Project has brought 14 year old composer Skye Neal to work with our JOY Chamber Orchestra at Edwards ES. She has been working closely with the Site Director at Edwards to workshop some new pieces that she has written for their orchestra. This includes changing articulation, altering the key to make it more approachable for students, and adjusting after hearing young musicians perform the pieces live. Skye plans to premiere one of her pieces with the JOY students in their January concert and another in May."
