Sarah Willis: The priority in Cuba is to find food and survive

The renowned British horn player Sarah Willis, of the Berliner Philharmoniker, and founding leader of the musical ensemble “Sarahbanda”, has just returned from an educational tour of Cuba, Colombia and Panama. Willis is deeply committed to many of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra’s educational projects. Everything she does encourages young people to continue their training and deeply moves the audience.

Her charitable work and efforts to promote classical music have earned her the highest recognition in the United Kingdom, having been appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) by Queen Elizabeth II in 2021.
