The Side-by-Side experience was just magnificent. The musical environment was spectacular! Entering into Side-by-Side really gave me an experience that was unforgettably remarkable I learned many new things which were quite beneficial and will definitely help me out in the long run for my musical career that of viola performance! All in all I couldn't ask for more what a remarkable and memorable time I had, thank you to all the ISO mentors they did their amazing job in bettering us and structuring us musically!
