AYO World Tour : Tokyo and San Francisco
Dear AYO Friends,
What a fast-paced three days. Here’s what our double bass coach David Sheets wrote about the Orchestra’s Mahler 1 under James Judd - our first concert this season in Tokyo:
"Bravi Asian Youth Orchestra...Last night you played your best Mahler 1 yet, including an excellent solo by double bassist Rey Vincent Sunglao. Remember what it feels like to play so confidently and passionately. Take risks. Give yourself completely to the music. See you in New York!"

Enjoy Your Mooncake, Mindfully : Gourmet Skin Bar
It’s nearly time for Mid-Autumn Festival and that means Mooncakes! You definitely should enjoy your mooncake, but perhaps in a more mindful way. Gourmet Skin Bar cares for the beauty and well being of its clients, thus it’s important to us to address the topic of balancing food intake during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It’s easy to stray away from the conventional ways during the holidays when there’s the opportunity to feast on a large amount of food and especially the sweet, orange mooncakes.

End of Summer Pork Chops - Taste of Scan
September marks the end of summer; children back in school, and the days are starting to cool down. We are still, partially at least, in a summer mood. It’s the perfect time for an end of summer bbq, with Scan’s Flower-Fed pork and this recipe!
Often pork chops simply don't get the praise they deserve. When cooked right, this lean cut is delicious as a tender, flavorful main course. Always ensure you use high quality pork meat, like juicy and tender Scan flower-fed pork that is simple to cook to perfection.
Google Earth: New Tool for Conservationists
In the year 2000, Jane Goodall, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute, and Lilian Pintea explored Tanzania with Google Earth for the first time. They were shocked how Google Earth showed just how severe the deforestation was in the Gombe Forest, home of the chimpanzees Goodall had so famously studied in the 1960s. Chimpanzees had retreated to other areas because of the lack of food, water, and shelter due to the massive deforestation. If not quickly stopped, the chimps habitat would be completely destroyed.
