Poet Laureate, Youth Orchestras of San Antonio Team Up

Texas Public Radio announced a new collaboration between San Antonio's poet laureate Andrea "Vocab" Sanderson and the Youth Orchestra of San Antonio, called "San Antonio Sounds." "The collaborative music video project allows YOSA musicians the opportunity to embellish the work of other local artists," explains Jack Morgan. Further: 

"Our latest is ‘String Me Along’ with Andrea ‘Vocab’ Sanderson," [Music Director Troy Peters] said. "Andrea is the poet laureate of San Antonio, but she's also a really talented singer and rapper."

The song she provided is called "String Me Along," and Peters wrote and arranged the parts the students played.

"We had string players and a harpist record their parts at home on video, and we were able to mix all that together," he said.
