Dear Friends and Family,
My name is Damian Placencia. I am in 7th grade and from Evanston, Illinois. I play the viola in the Elgin Youth Symphony Orchestra (EYSO). I am also a member of EYSO’s chamber music institute where I play in a string quartet. I started playing viola in 4th grade when I moved to Illinois. Viola has become more than just an instrument to me. It is a way to express myself and a huge part of who I am.
This year, we are celebrating our 45th season with the theme Myths & Legends! We have five orchestras, a brass choir, two percussion ensembles, and a chamber music program with nearly 300 students from fourth grade through college. We perform three concerts each year, and each concert explores a different connection between music and movement. You can learn more about us at EYSO.org.
Tuition covers only one-third of the total cost of each member’s participation in EYSO. Our NOTES campaign helps keep tuition reasonable and offsets program costs. Please consider donating to EYSO to help us meet our goal. More importantly, it will help benefit everyone in EYSO.
You can donate online by credit card via my campaign page or mail a check to me directly. Once the NOTES campaign is completed, you will receive a donation acknowledgement from EYSO for tax purposes. The campaign runs until March 28. All contributions to EYSO are tax deductible, as allowable by law.
Thanks very much for your support!
Damian Placencia
