Back to Bach Performed at Warren Township Library

Isabel Won, Eric Chen and Josh Park

Musicians from the Back to Bach Project performed various pieces for children at the Warren Township Library.

Josh Park, percussionist; Isabel Won, cellist, and Eric Chen, violinist, are young musicians in the pre-college program at The Juilliard School. They explained various musical terms and performed solo and group selections for children and parents at the library.

Musicians from the Back to Bach Project attend prestigious music schools and volunteer their time to visit elementary schools and libraries to share their love of music.
