So proud of Brianna and feeling grateful to play flute for her piece on Saturday evening. 🎶 Join us!
This November 2, the Parkdale Orchestra will premiere a piece by Brianna Dai ’24 at their next concert! Brianna is currently enrolled in the Faculty of Arts at Princeton University and is excited to hear her composition performed for the first time by a live orchestra.
