The first statewide classical music performing group for young people takes the stage this weekend. While some Montana cities have youth orchestras this one is the first to include young musicians from around the state and beyond. Longtime Montana State University Music Professor and current Dean of the Honors College, Isle-Marie Lee, is the founder of the Montana Youth Symphony. 'How did we do this? Well we reached out to every single music teacher in the state of Montana and we asked them to nominate present or past students that they had in their studios,' she said.
