Homeschool 7th-grade student Elliott Dahl is a gifted young violinist. He has been playing since age 6, and performs with the Temecula Conservatory of Music orchestra. He likes both classical and contemporary music; his favorite piece is Vivaldi Summer because of its fast pace.
In 2017, his orchestra performed at the “Music in the Parks” festival at Disneyland and earned a superior rating. The orchestra was subsequently invited to participate at the New York International Music Festival at Carnegie Hall where they played six memorized songs and earned a gold rating.
