Lynn Barszcz was born in the small town of Belchertown, Massachusetts. In high school, she attended SYMS (Summer Youth Music School) at the University of New Hampshire where she went on to receive the first ever SYMS scholarship of $20,000. She is currently a junior at UNH studying music performance under the direction of Dr. Nathan Jorgensen. At UNH, she participates in Wind Symphony, Jazz band, and many other chamber ensembles. This past year she was chosen to participate in the 35th annual UMass Saxophone Symposium where she took part in a master class with Arno Bornkamp. She has also taken part in a master class with John Sampen. Lynn hopes to some day become a saxophone professor and share the love of saxophone to new students.
