NEOJIBA on Tour

05-06-2026

The youth orchestra of the Brazilian program NEOJIBA has just returned from its 10th international tour, having visited Frankfurt, Germany, and four cities in China. They traveled with 108 musicians and staff, and the program focused on music from the Americas. NEOJIBA’s General Director Ricardo Castro conducted—usually from the podium and, for George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, from the piano.
