Musicians as young as 12 demonstrate the communicative power of classical music
NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts series has hosted everyone from Adele to Steve Martin (playing his banjo) and Yo-Yo Ma. Recently, however, they hosted three young classical musicians – Kaia Selden (violin), Noah Lee (cello), Javier Morales-Martinez (clarinet) and Derek Wang (piano) – who give riveting performances of Wieniawski's Scherzo-Tarantelle, Op 16, Mark Summer's Julie-O and the second movement of Poulenc's Clarinet Sonata.
