Hundreds of children from throughout Greater Boston are achieving excellence through classical music at BYSO. Every one of these children starts from a different place—age, socioeconomic background and culture. Their commonality is achieving artistic excellence, and in turn they recognize and strive for it in all areas of their life. Every pathway they take is unique and their transformation is distinctly their own. On May 9, 2017, we celebrated the extraordinary young musicians of BYSO—past, present and future, in support each of their unique pathways to excellence at the BYSO 7th Annual Gala & Auction, A Toast to Tomorrow: Pathways to Excellence at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
