Last week, Rep. Joe McGonagle attended a performance from the Chinese Youth Boston Symphony Orchestra at Boston City Hall celebrating Asian culture and the immigrant impact on Greater Boston. The orchestra, comprised of musicians aged 12 & under performed an array of songs, followed by speakers including Rep. McGonagle and event chairman Gary Yu.
“To say I was impressed by these talented musicians is a major understatement,” said McGonagle. “This kids were some of the best I’ve ever seen, right up there with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. This show was a testament to their hard work and dedication. I was grateful for the invitation and to meet with some of the great immigrant families that make our community so vibrant. Representing a diverse area is such a gift and being able to represent these incredible folks makes the job worth it.”
