Children’ Orchestra Society Performs In China – The Garden City News

Several Garden City students spent the summer traveling abroad with a local youth orchestra, The Children’s Orchestral Society.

Abigail and Emma Benzinger, Savannah Ma, and Nathaneal Lau were among the members of the orchestra and enjoyed a three city tour of China.

The Children’s Orchestral Society is operated by Dr. Yeou Cheng Ma and Michael Dadap. Dr. Ma is the elder sibling of internationally renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma. This trip was timed with the opening of the Yo-Yo Ma museum at the Ma’s ancestral home in Ningbo. The tour was entitled “Home Return” and was a truly great event.
