Arts Program Application Narrative
North Carolina Symphony
The North Carolina Symphony respectfully requests a$1,500 grant from the Orange County Arts
Commission in support of our Fall 2012 music education program.Specifically,this grant will underwrite
the direct costs of presenting education concerts with the full-orchestra at Raleigh's Meymandi Concert
Hall in Fall 2012 for approximately 1,800 elementary students from Orange County Schools and Chapel
Hill-Carrboro City Schools.
1. Organizational Profile-a brief overview your organization's mission and history
The North Carolina Symphony's mission is to be North Carolina's state orchestra, an orchestra achieving
the highest level of artistic quality and performance standards, and embracing its dual legacies of
statewide service and music education. Founded in 1932 under the direction of Pulitzer Traveling Fellow
Lamar Stringfield,the North Carolina Symphony has set itself apart from other orchestras over the past
eighty years through its commitment to statewide service and dedication to the musical education of
North Carolina's school children. Based in Raleigh's spectacular Meymandi Concert Hall at the Progress
Energy Center for the Performing Arts,the Symphony is a vital and honored component of North
Carolina's cultural life.The orchestra's sixty-eight musicians travel approximately 12,000 miles each year
throughout the state, reaching 250,000 people.
Perhaps the most important population the North Carolina Symphony serves is the approximately
50,000 students who participate in the Symphony's extensive music education program each year. Over
40 of the orchestra's 175 annual concerts are performed for free for North Carolina school children as
part of the arts education curriculum in public schools. In addition to the Symphony's signature
education concerts,the orchestra presents numerous other educational opportunities, including
professional development workshops for teachers,a pre-concert lecture series, masterclasses with
guest artists, a youth concerto competition,and free private music lessons for economically
disadvantaged students.The North Carolina Symphony recognizes the profound impact music has on
people's lives and believes its education programs provide a critical service to our community.
2.Current Programs and Services
Evening Concerts—The Symphony's 37-week season is comprised of diverse series and performances,
including its ever-popular classical music series,a pops series,a series of concerts designed specifically
for young people and families,and an outdoor summer concert series. In addition to performing in
Raleigh's Meymandi Concert Hall,the orchestra's home venue,the Symphony has subscription series in
the following communities across the state:Chapel Hill, Fayetteville, New Bern,Southern Pines,and
Wilmington.Throughout the 2011-12 season,the orchestra performed nine concerts in Chapel Hill's
Memorial Hall on the campus of UNC.
Education Concerts—Education concerts performed by the full-orchestra have been a central part of the
North Carolina Symphony's mission since the program began more than 60 years ago.The concerts are
designed to introduce young people to orchestral music in a fun and engaging way and supplement the
arts education curriculum in public schools.
Ensembles in the Schools—Small ensembles of North Carolina Symphony musicians(a string quartet or
wind quintet)teach students about the fundamentals of music in an interactive classroom setting.The
ensembles perform a selection of chamber works and engage the students in a lesson about the
important elements of each piece.Symphony members are able to interact with students one-on-one
and share their personal stories as musicians.The program is designed for students in grades K-12.

Instrument Zoos—Held prior to family-friendly Symphony performances as well as education concerts,
instrument zoos give children the opportunity to learn about the instruments from the orchestra and try
them out for themselves.Symphony musicians and volunteers demonstrate how to play the instruments
and assist each child as they play their first notes.
Master Classes—Symphony musicians, conductors, and guest artists lead master classes for young
instrumentalists,which provide students the opportunity to perform for and receive feedback from
some of the world's top musicians. Internationally-renowned artists such as Yo-Yo Ma, (cello), Leila
Josefowicz(violin), Branford Marsalis(Alto Saxophone), Catrin Finch (harp), and Elena Kats-Chernin
(composer) have recently given classes.
Professional Development for Teachers-The Symphony's professional development programs aim to
address North Carolina curriculum standards in education, best practices in the classroom, and
important issues facing music educators in our state.Our main program is an annual teacher workshop,
which is for music educators preparing students to attend the Symphony's education concerts.The
workshops provide teachers valuable activities and techniques for integrating the Symphony's music
education curriculum into their classrooms.Teachers receive 0.5 Continuing Education credits for
attending the workshop in person or online via our Moodie web site.
Young Strings of the Triangle—This program provides eighteen economically disadvantaged students
from the Triangle area the opportunity to study privately,free of charge with the state's top string
instructors. Past participants have gone on to study music education and music performance at such
universities as Oberlin College, East Carolina University, and UNC Charlotte.
The Kathleen Price and Joseph M. Bryan Youth Concerto Competition—Nearly 100 students audition
each year for the Symphony's youth concerto competition,a highly competitive event which draws the
most talented young musicians from across the state.The competition is open to all North Carolina
residents,ages 12-21,and includes both a junior and senior division. First and second place winners in
both divisions receive a cash prize and the first place senior division winner receives an opportunity to
perform with the North Carolina Symphony.
3. Proposed Use of Grant Funds
The North Carolina Symphony will perform hour-long education concerts for a total of 1,800 elementary
students from Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools in Fall 2012.Students will
attend one of four concerts, each of which will take place in Meymandi Concert Hall at the Progress
Energy Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh.The concert dates are currently being confirmed.
Introducing great orchestral music to young ears was an unceasing endeavor of Dr. Benjamin Swalin,our
music director from the 1940s through the early 70s. In his first-person history of the Symphony, Hard
Circus Road, Dr. Swalin,wrote, "Most importantly our musicians have delighted,thrilled and inspired
through live performances a host of school children whose lives and leadership continue to enrich the
North Carolina way of life."This 70-year tradition—the most extensive music education program in the
country—is a crucial component of the North Carolina Symphony's mission and a valued addition to
public and private school curriculum for more than 60,000 school students,teachers, and parents across
the state.
Jessica Myers, Director of Education for the North Carolina Symphony, works with a collection of
teachers, school administrators, and arts programming coordinators around the state each summer to

North Carolina Symphony
develop the Symphony's music education curriculum for the upcoming school year. Our current
curriculum is based on the question, "What makes music, music?" Students are led through the six
components of music: rhythm, dynamics,texture,tempo,form,and melody through interactive lesson
plans(included in the teacher's workbook), fun music games and puzzles, and introductions to great
composers and their works illustrating those concepts. For the 2011/12 school year, our selections
included Prologue and Gallop from The Comedians(D. Kabelevsky), Symphony No. 101 in D Major, "The
Clock," Mvt. II:Andante(F.J. Haydn),Overture to The Magic Flute(W.A. Mozart),The Montagues and
the Capulets from Romeo and Juliet(S. Prokofiev),Accelerations Waltz(J.Strauss,Jr.),The Entertainer
(S.Joplin), "Ode to Joy" (L. Beethoven),and Russian Sailors' Dance from The Red Poppy(R. Gliere).
Each August,teachers from across the state come to Meymandi Concert Hall in downtown Raleigh to
attend the five-hour workshop featuring presentations by the authors of the student and teacher
handbooks for that year.Teachers see and hear each activity and lesson plan from the workbooks
presented by the authors,their students,and other participating educators.To assist with covering our
cost,we keep the registration fee to a low$30 per teacher;this includes copies of the teacher
workbook,student guide,a CD of the concert program, printouts of all presentations, lunch, and special
door prizes for all attendees.Teachers can receive 0.5 CEU credits from their district for attending. NEW
THIS YEAR: In order to accommodate teachers in rural communities and those in distant counties with
no travel budget,we now provide the entire five-hour training course online.The online course is also
eligible for the 0.5 CEU credits.
The Symphony's music education concerts are a significant contribution to the arts education curriculum
in public schools.The Symphony provides teachers with detailed curriculum guides and students receive
handbooks that include biographies of the featured composers, background on their compositions,and
general information about the orchestra (see enclosed student handbook). In addition,all of the
Symphony's educational materials are available forfree on our website (www.ncsymphony.org).The
education concert program and corresponding curriculum are developed each year by a focus group of
educators from across the state,including members of the NC Department of Public Instruction,to
support the NC Standard Course of Study.
The concert is the culminating piece of the curriculum students have been working on with their
teachers during the school year.The full symphony performs each of the eight selections chosen for that
year and the conductor spends time between each song discussing the musical concept(rhythm,
dynamics,texture,tempo,form,and melody)demonstrated by each piece and introducing each section
of the orchestra (strings,woodwinds, brass,and percussion).This is often the first time many of the
students will hear a live classical music performance,an experience they might not have otherwise.We
break down the barriers of transportation,cost, and elitism often found in the performance art world by
bringing the music to them,free of charge, all while making classical music accessible and fun.
Committed to making music education widely accessible,the Symphony offers all of its education
concerts at no cost to students.As a result,the education concerts serve a diverse student population.
The Fall 2012 concerts will serve approximately 1,800 3rd-5th graders (ages 8-11)from Orange County
Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools.The demographics of the students served are as follows:
61%Caucasian,20%African-American, 10% Hispanic,and 9%Asian.The students in attendance at the
concert will be 49%female and 51%male.Approximately 30% percent of the students served are
eligible for free or reduced lunch. * I I .
* Demographic information is based on data from the NC Department of Education.
