This article describes how musicians try out for the New World Symphony orchestra in Miami Beach, Florida. The New World is trying to find and mold musicians who are not only technically great classical musicians, but are also able to communicate with their audiences in such ways that they will draw more people to hear their music. Because of the economic difficulties of maintaining symphony orchestras, orchestra members need more than musical talent.

The article reports that an anonymous donor has gifted $90 million to the New World Symphony orchestra in Miami Beach, Florida. The orchestra plans to spend the money on its project, which includes a new building and technical equipment. It is mentioned that the orchestra officials wanted to announce the gift after starting the project, but a board member talked about the building's plans in a meeting, due to which the issue was prematurely disclosed to the public.
