5 videos • 183 views • by jwpepper1876 The Philadelphia Youth Orchestra Music Institute’s virtual gala is an annual event usually held at the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia. Due to the pandemic, this year’s gala was a virtual event that J.W. Pepper, a longtime sponsor of the organization, was asked to produce. Over a period of about six weeks, a Pepper team recorded footage of rehearsals and conducted interviews of faculty, students, and parents. They discuss what this organization means to them, the experience of making music through the pandemic, their dedication to providing music education for underserved schools, and more. The full gala, co-hosted by PYO Music Institute’s President, CEO, and Music Director Louis Scaglione and local CBS news anchor Ukee Washington, premiered on June 10 and can be viewed on PYO Music Institute’s YouTube channel.
