For more than 25 years, Wargo has been teaching students the art of playing in an orchestra through the public school system But what is really exceptional is how many kids he taught during this time. Every Tuesday he would rush from place to place, from the school where he taught, to downtown Richmond, where he would teach some more—this time with a much higher-skilled group, the Richmond Symphony Youth Orchestra Sinfonietta or Camerata. And then it was off to the symphony to rehearse for the next concert.
