She also performs as a duo partner with lute virtuoso Christopher Morrongiello. In recent seasons Young has appeared with the viol consort Parthenia, the renaissance band Piffaro, and the Folger and Newberry Consorts; at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Cloisters, the Center for Jewish History, the Yale Center for British Art, the CityMusic Series in Columbus, the Yale University Collection of Musical Instruments, Amherst and Boston Early Music Festivals, the Ars Antiqua series in Chappaqua, New York, the HotShops gallery space in Omaha, and the Lute Society of America Conference and Seminar in Cleveland.
