LISA BOYER
Director of Education
Describe one of the most rewarding experiences you've had working for the Symphony.
The first student recorder play-along at a Young People’s Concert – many would expect 1,300 3rd and 4th graders playing recorders at the same time to be a “not-so-pleasant” listening experience but it took my breath away and brought tears to my eyes – for the right reasons!
Describe your ideal vacation.
Beach vacations with family are heaven
If you could visit any location in the world, where would it be?
Paris, with more than 5 days this time
Who is your favorite recording artist or group?
Pianist Murray Perahia playing Bach
Describe a perfect meal.
Chocolate
