Mandolin Symposium Master Class

[eightstrings]

Well, with all these rumours of future symposiums, sadness from not being able to go to the first one, and lots of mandolin practice/playing, I've made my goal for now to shoot for the Level 5 class at a future symposium. #This goal might seem impossible, but someone once said to set impossible goals because it will make you work harder. #I was just wondering if any other memebrs on here were in the master class at this past symposium? #Any info would be great. #I also heard there weren't too many people my age there- I'm 15. #Thats all for now, I hear a Yellowstone desperately wanting to be played...

There were a handful (5?) of teenagers in the master class. For the final night concert they wrote and performed a piece with Chris Thile and Sam Grisman on bass. You can see a clip of them playing in the last clip here:

There were several other very talented teenagers that can also be seen in the other clips.
