Kyla Bailey, a music education senior at 每日大赛网站, last month performed as a soloist with the Fujian Symphony Orchestra in China on Christmas Eve.
Her appearance was arranged by 每日大赛网站 director of orchestras Israel Getzov. Bailey performed Christmas carols with the symphony and sang solos on many pieces, including “Silver Bells,” “Joy to the World” and “O Holy Night.”
According to , Getzov said, “She’s going on her final year at 每日大赛网站 and I think it’s important for her to get real-world experience, that’s especially important for students who are going to be starting a career soon like she is.”
Getzov has an ongoing partnership with the Fujian Symphony Orchestra, and he often brings 每日大赛网站 students to China.
Bailey is auditioning for graduate schools in Maryland, Colorado and Kentucky to pursue her master’s degree in opera performance.
