Point-of-view issues with main paragraph. edit

Particular area in question is:

"NYOS ensembles inspire audiences worldwide with their outstanding skill, youthful energy and panache. Audiences marvel at the powerful sound of our large-scale orchestras, appreciate the intimacy of our smaller chamber concerts and delight in the fresh and uplifting performances given by our jazz bands. They are often surprised and always impressed by the exceptional talent of Scotland’s young musicians.

We believe in the future of Scotland’s next generation of musicians, our students are proud and excited to be playing with Scotland’s National Youth Orchestras and we are passionate about supporting and developing their talent."

Both paragraphs are clearly written from the perspective of the NYOS, yet are not presented as such. I do not know if the correct path of action would be to delete the passages or try to re-word to ensure neutrality and verifiability, so I thought I would point this out.

Adding tags edit

I've added the advert and single source tags as the detailed descriptions in each section read like a brochure and are not encyclopaedic: "The summer school represents a wide range of ability but a common enthusiasm for jazz" etc.

There's also not a single inline ref (and only one link) and the only source listed is their own website homepage.
