Csardas Youth Ensemble Performance Reviews Csardas Youth Ensemble spent a busy holiday season at the end of 2005 performing at Severance Hall, Taft Elementary School, Medina Performing Arts Center and 4 performances at Trinity Cathedral! All performances received rave reviews. At the Medina Performing Arts Center, the Youth Ensemble performed in conjunction with the Budapest Ensemble from Hungary and received accolades from Director, Zoltán Zsuráfszki. The performances at Trinity Cathedral were in conjunction with the annual Medieval Feasts, this year the theme being Hungary -- thunderous applause resounded throughout the cathedral from their performances. Severance Hall patrons were thrilled to have the youth ensemble perform in conjunction with The Cleveland Orchestra Family Concert Series. Students at Taft Elementary loved our dancers enough to ask for autographs! More photos from these performances can be seen in our PHOTO GALLERY.
