Youth orchestra includes homeschooled musician

By

Village Soup, Rockland, Maine, 8 December 2006, Odeon Youth Orchestra to Perform December 10th

Odeon’s advanced ensemble will perform the world premiere of Nathan Hillman’s Concerto for Violin and Cello, with Sophie Davis, violin and Nora Willauer, cello. Hillman, a twelve year-old from Monroe, is a student at the Ashwood Waldorf School and has been composing for Odeon over the past two years. Willauer, a seventh grader at Hope Elementary, began studying the violin seven years ago with Janet Ciano, taking up the cello two years ago. Sophie Davis, a home-schooler from Waldoboro, has been making music with Nathan and Nora since they were four years old. They were last seen playing chamber music together on the stage of the Rockport Opera House this past summer, as part of Bay Chamber Concerts Next Generation concert.
