Description - The NZSO National Youth Orchestra by Joy Tonks

The NZSO National Youth Orchestra: Fifty years and Beyond is an intimate history of one of New Zealand's most successful artistic enterprises, as revealed through the eyes of its inspirational first conductor, John Hopkins, and a succession of managers, national and international conductors, soloists, dedicated NZSO tutors and players. Author Joy Tonks has drawn on many of these lively, diverse memories, together with interviews and other contributions, in combination with the orchestra's own extensive archives and current records. Full of colourful and sometimes controversial personalities, this book tells of trials and triumphs, and is a tribute to the outstanding success of New Zealand's National Youth Orchestra.
