Boston can be proud that this week, in The Netherlands, these 116 students are cultural ambassadors for the USA.. The tour consists of: five performances at the highest level in the best concert halls in The Netherlands; a live national radio broadcast; working sessions, performances and social time with musicians from student orchestras ; a flash mob in the Amsterdam Metro system; and time for sight-seeing.
