New England Conservatory is a cauldron of new ideas, some so big that they become organizations in their own right. We proudly showcase these partners.
From the Top returns to its home at NEC's Jordan Hall to tape its NPR radio program, a national radio show founded at NEC.
Hosted by pianist Christopher O'Riley '81 A.D., this taping occurs before a live audience with a healthy representation of NEC Preparatory students among the participants.
The broadcast taping features:
18-year-old violinist Carson Marshall from Belchertown, Massachusetts
performing the second movement, Andante scherzando, from the Violin Sonata No. 3 by Frederick Delius
16-year-old violist Alexia DelGiudice South Easton, Massachusetts
performing Rhapsodie from Suite Hébraïque by Ernest Bloch
Alexia studies at New England Conservatory with David Rubinstein, and is a member of NEC's Youth Philharmonic Orchestra.
16-year-old flutist Anthony Trionfo from Las Vegas, Nevada
performing Andante Pastoral et Scherzettino by Paul Taffanel
15-year-old pianist Angie Zhang from Princeton Junction, New Jersey
performing Basso Ostinato by Rodion Shchedrin
17-year-old mandolinist Gordon Neidinger from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
