On Deck with Alessandro Diaz Ayala
February 18, 2023
Alessandro Diaz Ayala is a cellist and conductor who hails from BRAVO Youth Orchestras. He’s a 9th grader at Jefferson high school and enjoys classical music very much. Lately, he’s been exploring other instruments like the flute and quickly realized how much air is needed for the instrument, but he still enjoys playing it in the school band. Alessandro plans to attend college (Harvard is his #1 school) to major in medicine and minor in music with the dream of becoming a surgeon. Check him out at the next BRAVO Community Orchestra concert at the University of Portland. You’ll see him in the cello section and conducting a piece on the program!
