He continued: “To see the hall with our special viewers and donors, gave confidence to the artists and future of the national symphony orchestra. We are grateful to both our audience and donors for the historical support level and this season we are looking forward to meeting everyone in Kennedy Center.”

While the supporters have been filled the seats for a long time, NSO officials walking on the Kennedy Center and the red carpet, it is important to make a harmonious effort to bring more young people to the symphony.

“Well, I think the people will make this decision, and I think we probably have to have a little more to attract some of the young people,” Fox News told Digital.

Davidson said he had a few ideas about how more youth will be withdrawn.

“So we have a classic season, and then we have a pop season,” Fox News said to Digital. “And the pop season, as we did the ‘Princess Bride’ last week – runs movies at the concert.

He said the symphony was something for everyone.

“People are coming for the artists they love, so a way to introduce people to an orchestra that will not think that they are orchestra lovers.” He said. “The idea is that everyone can come to hear an orchestra game. You don’t have to be an expert. Going to a contemporary art museum. You don’t know what to think about art. It doesn’t matter. Just come, let it talk to your soul. You may be pieces of your favorite, you may be in tears.”

Mary Helen Bowers, a member of the Board of Trump, who participated in the chairman of the President Donald Trump in 2020, said that the new leadership, including Kennedy Center Ambassador Richard Grerell, focused on “making arts wonderful”.

“Now we’re here. The focus point is to satisfy the audience, Ba Bowers said to Fox News Digital. He continued: “And this is actually this. It is about creating beauty and creating a great experience, but with Grerell’s leadership, especially in this time, it is very important to the financial health of the center.”

He was asked about the artists with the so -called “Trump’s inheritance”, Bowers blunt.

“I think it’s ashamed,” he said. “I think this is a big mistake when you politicize the arts, and I think many of the former leadership of Kennedy Center were doing this exactly, and President Trump, a great leader and supporter of the arts, came to come and think that people are very unpleasant because they are very important to the Knennedy center, because they feel very pleasant, I think it was something that is not, because I felt very important, because I felt something very important.

Kennedy Center gala collected $ 3.45 million NSO’s performances, educational and community participation attempts in funds, NSO’s previous years of what has revealed almost double. For the first time, about half of the participants were Gala guests.

“President Trump’s vision to make Kennedy Center usable for more people works clearly. Half of the participants were the first guests and the enthusiasm took almost three times what previously done,” Grenell said in a press release. He said. “The energy in the room was inspiring, reflecting NSO’s incredible future and how deeply art is important for our nation.”
