Project Description:
The Cork 2005 Orchestral Series brought the European Union Youth Orchestra to Cork for one performance. Comprising 140 musicians aged between 14 and 24 from a wide range of EU member states, the EUYO is not only a demonstration of a united community of nations working together but also one of Europe’s finest orchestras. The event was a sell-out.
