In this episode, we dive into the inspiring musical journey of Adela, a talented young cellist and high school senior. Adela shares her experience with MYSO and how it has shaped her life and future aspirations.

From her serendipitous introduction to the cello in second grade to her current plans of pursuing a degree in cello performance, Adela's story is a testament to the transformative power of music education and community support.

She offers insights into the challenges and rewards of dedicating oneself to an instrument and the invaluable experiences gained through MYSO including:

  • Adela's unexpected start with the cello, choosing it without knowing what it was, and how this spontaneous decision led to a deep passion for the instrument.
  • The impact of MYSO on Adela's personal growth, providing her with leadership opportunities and a supportive community of fellow music enthusiasts.
  • Adela's journey from a curious beginner to an accomplished young musician preparing for conservatory auditions, illustrating the long-term effects of early music education.

Adela's story serves as an inspiration for young musicians and a powerful example of how MYSO nurtures talent and shapes futures.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
