and ensembles perform for thousands of
concertgoers each year in addition to regular
appearances on local and national television

ONE PEACE is now live on
digital platforms for all to enjoy. This
original composition by Daniel
Fulmer was commissioned by the
Florida Youth Orchestra to musically remind
the listener that our youth will inhabit
only the tranquility - or turmoil - that is
left to them. Thunderous tones intertwined
with measures of serenity will, hopefully,
increase rejection of a world in chaos.
Conducted by Dr. Rufus Jones,ONE
PEACE features Grammy winner Nestor
Torres (FYO’s Artist In
Residence) and is performed by children as
young as nine years old.
It is being submitted for consideration of
a Grammy Award in the Fall of 2024.
