YCA believes in creating and advancing a future where classical music is accessible to all, with broad representation, both on stage and in the audience. Learn about how YCA's Director of Education & Community Engagement, Drake Driscoll, and YCA Artists connect with students across New York and Washington, DC through this mini-documentary on YCA's Year-Long Program. By leading master classes, workshops, and in-school classroom visits, our extraordinary young musicians learn the value of giving back while providing an entry point to an art form that provides connection to the broader world and improved social-emotional development. For YCA artists, these opportunities to craft their own projects help them develop their personal missions for broader community engagement. Through these efforts, YCA artists not only inspire the next generation, but also communicate the vitality of the art form and expand the reach of classical music. -- Lead support for YCA's Year-Long Program for School Partnerships in New York City is generously provided by the Arts and Letters Foundation. Support for YCA's Education and Community Engagement Programs is generously provided by The Morris and Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation, Alvin and Louise Myerberg Family Foundation/Jennifer Myerberg, Cornelia T.
