Local high school students perform at Tanglewood Institute

Two young musicians from the Village and Chelsea took part in the Boston University Tanglewood Institute performance and study program last month.

Michal Novemsky, daughter of Martin and Irit Novemsky of the Village and a junior at Stuyvesant High School, played and studied oboe with Boston Symphony Orchestra musicians and Boston University music professors at the Tanglewood Music Center’s main campus in Lenox, Mass.

Lisa Zivkovic, daughter of Don and Christine Zivkovic of Chelsea and a junior at Bronx High School of Science, was one of the pianists who played and studied with members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and B.U. faculty at Tanglewood.

The two were among the 350 students who won auditions to attend the program where they met a demanding schedule of practice, rehearsals, master classes and concerts.
