2017 - 2018 Coaches & mentors

The students of the Worcester Youth Orchestra are fortunate to be coached and mentored by some of the finest and most dedicated educators and teachers in central Massachusetts. Many of them are public school teachers and direct the band/orchestral programs in their school district.  We are incredibly grateful to have them working with us this season and offering their guidance and expertise to our students.  This year we welcome the following:
