THE LEGACY (DVD)

THE LEGACY is a feature length documentary that explores the hope, dignity, and joy that the pursuit of excellence engenders in a human being. We follow the lives of nine young musicians as they tour South America as part of The Youth Orchestra of the Americas (YOA) and then return to their hometowns. Along the way, we get to know the nobility of these dedicated young professionals, the impact that music has had on their lives, and the impact they, in turn, have on the world that surrounds them.

DISCOVERY – LIFE, SPIRIT, MUSIC (DVD)

In the summer of 2003, 108 of the most gifted young musicians representing 20 different countries of the American content convened for a two week rehearsal period on the campus of Earth University, in the Costa Rican rain forest. These two weeks were followed by four more weeks of touring through 18 different cities in Central and South America. A grueling daily rehearsal and tour schedule consisting of late nights, early mornings, constant travel, and variations in altitude and climate, took its toll on all. But the passion and enthusiasm of the musicians never dampened. Moreover, thousands of people in the far away corners of the hemisphere, who had never been exposed to classical music, discovered spiritual heights that transformed their sense of life forever.
