Westwood Musicians To Play In BYSO's La Boheme

Three young men from Westwood will be playing in the orchestra of Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra (BYSO)’s performance of Puccini’s La Boheme. BYSO’s annual opera performance will take place on January 27 at 3pm at the Sanders Theater in Cambridge, MA.

BYSO’s Westwood members are Jonathan Marvel-Zuccola, Trey Ursillo, and Noah Stone. Marvel-Zuccola plays the double bass, Ursillo the trombone, and Stone the clarinet. All three young men have belonged to the Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra for a few years. Ursillo performed with the Massachusetts Music Education Association’s All State Orchestra in 2017. Stone was the Eastern Division finalist in the state’s Senior Woodwind competition in 2016.

Boston Youth Symphony Orchestra is an audition-based orchestra which was founded in 1958. Its annual opera performance began in 2008, and furthers BYSO’s goal of educating youth about classical music.

La Boheme’s sole performance will be at 3pm on Sunday, January 27, at the Sanders Theatre in Cambridge. Tickets may be purchased here. Ironically, the 1996 rock adaptation of La Boheme, RENT, will air live on FOX at 8pm that night.
