SEMAYO’s Africa Video

Feb 5, 2021

The Southeastern Massachusetts Youth Orchestras (SEMAYO) present an amazing virtual performance of Toto’s “Africa,” available to view on YouTube.com.

SEMAYO Conductor Tobias Monte stated “The current pandemic has kept performing artists apart for nearly a year. In-person collaborations have been few and far between. Even though we're separated we can still make music together. The students and staff of the youth orchestras prepared and recorded their parts from home or wherever they happened to be to create this virtual performance.”
