of musicians and the concert hall suddenly louis it's when the best you from around the world come here to balance resent the scope behind me and the concert halls we wonder what motivates them and do they bring bad ass politics into the orchestra. we meet up with two members of a south african orchestra. or music is a great investment. i have no problem go from fredericksburg in the paper the jews will just keep believing i'm for native who come from cape town and i thank me as. well i think. you know the most beautiful thing about i was just that sort of brings together people that you would never actually be with and. comes
in because you know all of a sudden you you know sitting next to somebody. you know two thousand kayser we have never met. me and she started out offering musical workshops for young people across all ethnic and social boundaries the orchestra emerged out of that and it's now touring europe. and in our present day there are many social differences that we experience because of the past we've had. and now you know moving forward and i find that playing in this orchestra. all of that it goes away because music becomes the most important thing. is celebrating the hundredth birthday of nelson mandela he dreamed of

youth a. history has been a cultural ambassador for the european union for more than four decades but it's facing changes. i think what i wish for europe is that it's keeping its unity how do you feel about the move from london to ferrero because the headquarter is moving that is coming out this is something you talk about in the orchestra as a brit i feel very affected by this us that all of the other musicians in the orchestra from the quay. and not only for us thinking that at some point we were in the next couple years we were able to apply for the orchestra and. many members of the ensemble are studying across europe it is unclear what changes will bring but their music doesn't know borders. thing it's a fact you could learn from a quest for life you can always find a solution even though there are so many people with different opinions how it
should be but there's one boss was for us is the conductor then and people can agree on it's. the european union might be facing lots of problems but the orchestra is doing fine it embodies international cooperation it's musicians are excellent and it attracts great conductors orchestra members often go on to professional careers for many it's a stepping stone to success the young euro classic festival has been held here every year since two thousand it's not a stuffy as some classical music events younger audiences don't feel out of place. jen and brianna saida conducted the orchestra in a performance of chekhov ski's fifth symphony.
