Class of: 2017

Matthew Scinto

Matthew Scinto (CFA’17) of Brewster, Mass., has created an orchestra to serve the Cape Cod region. “I was shocked by the lack of classical music and the need for an organization to help develop more youth programs in this area of Massachusetts,” he writes. “After fundraising since October 2017, I managed to raise around $10,000 for our debut concert on April 15, 2018. Performing music of young composers is part of the mission of the orchestra, and we [debuted] a new piece by Boston composer Francis Snyder on the poetry of Judith Askew, a local Cape Cod poet.”
