"First rate in every way" -New York Times

Fresh from a sold-out New World Symphony performance and an appearance at Carnegie Hall, where the ensemble has played annually since 2006, the young competition-winners of Sphinx and Catalyst make their Stanford debut in a program spanning three continents and three centuries. These dynamic artists have embraced the Detroit-based Sphinx Organization's mission to advance the participation of African Americans and Latinos as performers, educators, and listeners. Their Lively Arts visit is a rare West Coast appearance.
