It is a great privilege for former members of the National Youth Orchestras of Scotland to be asked back to perform as soloists with the organisation that helped shape their careers. It happened to Sarah Ayoub sooner than she expected. Two years ago, at the age of 22, and not long graduated from the Royal Conservatoire of Music, the cello and piano-playing half of the multi-instrumental Ayoub Sisters appeared as solo pianist with the NYOS Senior Orchestra in George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue.
