Help Send Virgil to Meadowmount!

Hello family and friends,

My name is Virgil Moore, II.  I am a 16 year-old violinist from Lynchburg, VA and I have been playing the violin for seven years.  Since beginning, I developed a passion for playing.  In fact, I'd like to pursue violin performance as both a college major, and a profession.

Throughout the year I play with the Lynchburg Symphony Orchestra, the Lynchburg Symphony Youth Orchestra, and several local ensembles.  I am excited to announce that I auditioned for, and received acceptance into, the Meadowmount School of Music to study with Ivan Zenaty.  This prestigious, 7-week summer school takes place in upstate New York, and has a solo and chamber music focus.  Meadowmount is dedicated to training the musicians of the next generation.  It has served as the training ground of luminaries such as Itzhak Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, and Joshua Bell.   Acceptance into this competitive summer program presents a special opportunity for me to learn from great teachers and comes at a critical period, as my  focus is shifting to preparing for my college auditions.  I’m looking forward to attending Meadowmount this summer, and growing and progressing as a musician.

The total cost to attend is $7,500.   Any donation you can give to help towards my goal of raising $5,500 would not only be greatly appreciated, but will get me one step closer to realizing my dream.
