Throwing it back to this summer’s incredible trip to France, where we celebrated the international premiere of an original string quartet by NYS alum David Lui at the beautiful La Halle aux Grains in Blois, France! 🇫🇷🎻🎶

A 2026 NYS graduate and talented cellist, David will continue his musical journey at New England Conservatory, where he’ll pursue composition. 🎼

The quartet was performed by David and three other 2026 NYS alumni, Dylan, Geneva, and Ian, all now graduated and heading off to college.

NYS Alumni—we want to hear from you! 🎶📣

Whether you played one season or six, whether your instrument is still in your hands or tucked in a closet, you helped make NYS what it is. Now we'd love to know where life has taken you.

✅ Please take five minutes to complete our short alumni survey:
https://fs30.formsite.com/nysforms/qk7msn1a4j/index

Your responses will help us reconnect our alumni community, invite you to upcoming events, and if you’re interested, give current students the chance to learn from someone who once sat in their chair.

If you’re still in touch with fellow NYS musicians, please share this post with them. And if you’re a former NYS parent, please pass it along to your child(ren).

We can't wait to reconnect with you!
