This collaborative outing takes part in the violin competition with Simon McDonald, a faculty member at other music colleges.
MacDonald, the artistic director of the Youth Artists Academy program, was recently appointed head of the school\'s string department and will join Holliston in the performance of Mozart and the 19th-century master\'s work in Cesar, France.
The two will also perform four early 20th-century modernist works from Anton Wellborn.
