Have any of you heard about the You Tube Symphony Orchestra?
You Tube concocted the idea of an orchestra made up of musicians from all over the world. Interested musicians could submit their auditions to You Tube online. Michael Tilson Thomas was chosen to be the conductor, and a symphony was specifically written for the occasion.
This event premiered last night at Carnegie Hall.
