She comes to GPYO after two seasons leading the Youth Philharmonic of the Charlotte Symphony Youth Orchestras Program and three seasons as the Music Director of the Winston-Salem Symphony Youth Orchestras Program, which saw significant growth under her leadership. We are eager for our members to begin rehearsals and live performances under Dr. Morel’s baton. Read more about Dr. Morel. Watch our Summer Announcements Video!
