Esther is very proud to say that she was one of three escort interpreters for the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela during their stop in Los Angeles for their first US Tour. This assignment lasted 4 days from 7 am - midnight on most days but it has had the most positive impact in her life. It was a privilege to have had a tiny part in the lives of such talented musicians. Classical music will never be heard the same way.
