Mozart isn't the only one who was writing music as a child. There are many young composers all around the world today, and one of them is Morgan Moscati, a George Mason High School IB music student.
On April 30th, Morgan was one of 18 U.S. students who traveled to Vermont to have her original music composition performed by professional musicians at Chandler Music Hall in Randolph, Vermont.
Morgan's original composition, "Sassy Strut", scored for woodwind quintet, was chosen from forty-four other entries in a composition contest sponsored by the Vermont MIDI Project.
This semi-annual live performance features student composers and professional musicians.
Morgan will attend Duquesne University this fall as music education major.
