Tania Miller Tuesday morning at Atticus. "One of the first things I believe is that music is for everyone," she said. "And that's really truly a passion for me. I think about myself as this young kid from a rural place, and I'm in love with classical music. I can translate the humble place that I started into this extraordinary world of expression, of art, of the highest art." Lucy Gellman Photo.

On diversity in symphony orchestras, David Amado said “It’s incredibly important. I think that the orchestra should be of the community. I’m not suggesting that every statistic needs to be represented precisely by the orchestra membership, but I do think it has to be represented somehow.” Lucy Gellman Photo.
