Last week, the MSO participated in the filming of the documentary The Sound of a Bucket List, directed by local filmmaker David Kaye. The subject of the film, 17-year-old Ella Coonen, was diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which has significantly impacted her hearing and will eventually lead to total hearing loss. Ella joined the MSO and Chorus at the October 2 rehearsal of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 so she could experience a live orchestra performance as part of her bucket list of sounds.
