The greatest joy in attending the annual YAA full-scale performance is to be overwhelmed by the amazing quality of all the students participating, whether singing on stage or in the chorus, acting, dancing, or playing instruments. We all have favorite moments, and mine was the production of Les Miserables. For me it was the artistic performance of the year, as it totally transcended what I thought a youth group could achieve. That not only reflected the ability of the Sanz brothers to bring out the best in the students, but to see/hear and recognize what sheer talents our students have. Go to see a YAA performance and be astonished!
