Dedicated to Ellen Ray Lee and her Transylvania Youth Symphony in Brevard, NC where this was filmed at the Porter Center - December 8, 2014. She began the her studio using the O'Connor Method and built the program to 75 students and three teaching assistants before having to retire for health reasons. The director for the Asheville Symphony didn't want to continued the O'Connor Method and wanted to turn the group into a real youth orchestra. But the children and the parents complained when the semester began. The O'Connor Method will make its return in Bervard because the musician students led the charge. Congratulations for holding onto something that is so special in your lives. Mark and Maggie O'Connor - performing Silent night in front of those 75 students in North Carolina.
