American in orchestra
One of the 21 Aucklanders selected for the National Youth Orchestra is an American field scholar, Su Jorgenson, aged 17, from Redlands, California. She is a student at Takapuna Grammar School this year, and is trying to work out how she can tour with the orchestra in August and go on the A.F.S. tour at the same time.
Her father is a professor of music at Redlands University and is director of bands there, and her mother is a music teacher. Su plays the piano, her younger brother, John, plays the clarinet, and another brother, David, is being persuaded to become a brass musician. She has played with the Auckland Junior Symphony Orchestra and the Secondary Schools’ Orchestra.
