“When I was in high school, I had the privilege

“When I was in high school, I had the privilege of performing in Orchestra Hall with the Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphony and Minnesota Youth Symphonies. I never thought I would get to perform in Orchestra Hall again, so getting to perform with the Minnesota Orchestra, especially as a soloist, is quite literally a dream come true!” Congratulations, @grace_roepke! Read more about GTCYS alum Grace Roepke (‘15) in this Q&A from mi@mn_orchestra ahead of her upcoming concerts June 8th and 9th.
