Conductor JoAnn Falletta led the World Youth Symphony Orchestra at Kresge Auditorium for Week 5 of the 99th season of Interlochen Arts Camp.
Falletta conducted two pieces: the vivid "The Art of Sailing at Dawn" by American composer Margaret Brouwer, and the powerful, historically charged Symphony no. 5 by Dmitri Shostakovich.
