The result of years of individual study at the Polyphony Conservatory and shared music making in Polyphony’s Youth Orchestra culminate this November. We are delighted to bring violinist Shaden Nahra, violist Amichai Yaakov Hefter, cellist Eli Levi, and flutist Mais Hriesh together for a series of performances in California.  

The young musicians have been working together over the past few years and are all participants in Polyphony programs. Mais studied at the Conservatory for over a decade, and Shaden, Eli, and Amichai are multi-year members of Polyphony’s Youth Orchestra. In addition, all of the musicians have participated in Polyphony’s Scholar-in-Residence program for multiple years
