Sarah joins celebrated Boston baritone Philip Lima and the Youth Philharmonic Orchestra at New England Conservatory Preparatory Program in Robert Russell Bennett's arrangement of Gershwin's Porgy and Bess - A Concert of Songs and the East Coast premiere of Nicolas Hersh's arrangement of We Shall Overcome/Lift Ev'ry Voice. Juliano Dutra Aniceto conducts.

New England Conservatory’s yearlong celebration of its Preparatory School’s 75th anniversary will culminate in a free concert at the Department of Conservation & Recreation's Edward A. Hatch Memorial Shell.

The festive, family friendly concert, which will also celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States’ founding, will feature NEC Prep’s Youth Philharmonic Orchestra (YPO) in a performance that highlights many of the diverse musical traditions that have shaped our shared culture. Since its founding in 1867, NEC has been a cornerstone of Boston’s vibrant arts community. The Conservatory’s Prep School, established in 1950, has for generations been a leader in youth music education.
