This grant will support the costs of presenting education concerts with the full-orchestra in Fall 2013 to elementary students from the Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools. 1.Organizational Profile Founded in 1932,the North Carolina Symphony is a full-time,65-member orchestra with a mission to be North Carolina's state orchestra,an orchestra achieving the highest level of artistic quality and performance standards while embracing its dual legacies of statewide service and music education. Under the leadership of music director Grant Llewellyn the orchestra has continued to increase both its artistic stature and service to the community.Traveling approximately 14,000 miles each season across the state,the Symphony reaches 250,000 people per year from more than 30 counties, including over 50,000 school children. The orchestra also has an extensive music education program which is integrated into the arts education curriculum of the North Carolina public schools. The North Carolina Symphony allocates more of its resources to statewide service and music education than any other American orchestra. 2.Current Programs and Services Evening and Community Concerts—The Symphony's season is comprised of diverse series and performances including its classical music series, 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 offers subscription series in the following communities across the state: Chapel Hill, Fayetteville, New Bern, Southern Pines, and Wilmington. In Chapel Hill the Symphony performs nine classical concerts annually reaching an audience of over 10,000 patrons and an annual outdoor summer concert in Southern Village reaching over 2,500. Education—Education concerts performed by the full-orchestra have been a central part of the North Carolina Symphony's mission since the program began 70 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 the schools. The Symphony presents numerous other educational opportunities, including professional development workshops for teachers, a pre-concert lecture series(also presented before each classical concert in Chapel Hill), master classes 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. 1 4 3.Proposed Use of Grant Funds The North Carolina Symphony will perform hour-long education concerts for a total of 1,600 elementary students from Orange County Schools and Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools in Fall 2013.To accommodate scheduling requirements of the local schools, students will attend one of four concerts with the full orchestra,all of which will take place in Meymandi Concert Hall at the Duke Energy Center for the Performing Arts in Raleigh. The concert dates are currently being confirmed in collaboration with the arts coordinators from these school systems. The Symphony's Director of Education(to be named by August 2013)for the North Carolina Symphony collaborates with local teachers and school administrators around the state to develop the Symphony's music education curriculum. Based on the question, "What makes music, music?,"students are led by one of the orchestra's conductors 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, teachers prepare students in advance of the concerts illustrating these components. For example in 2012-13 students heard a selection from Stravinsky's"Rite of Spring"to demonstrate rhythm and sang "North Carolina is My Home"to learn about melody. Teachers from across the state attend a five-hour workshop In August in Raleigh featuring presentations by the authors of the workbooks 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. An affordable registration fee includes a copy of the teacher workbook, student guide, a CD of the concert program, printouts of all presentations and lunch.Teachers can receive 0.5 CEU credits from their district for attending. The Symphony also provides the five-hour training course online which is also eligible for 0.5 CEU credits. The Symphony's music education concerts are a significant contribution to the arts education curriculum in public schools. For a nominal fee the Symphony provides teachers with detailed curriculum guides; students receive handbooks that include biographies of the featured composers,background on their compositions,and general information about the orchestra (see enclosed student guide). The Symphony's educational materials are available for free online.The education concert program and corresponding curriculum support the NC Standard Course of Study. The education curriculum provides students with valuable tools such as counting and storytelling that enhance their learning in other core subjects, including math and writing. The demographics of the 1,600 elementary students to be served are: 61%Caucasian, 20%African- American, 10% Hispanic, and 9%Asian;49%female and 51%male.Approximately 30%percent of the students served are eligible for free or reduced lunch. * * Source: based on data from the NC Department of Education. 2 �j 2013-14 Arts Program Application — Page Three GTS ORANGE COUNTY ARTS COMMISSION North Carolina Symphony Project Expenses Cash = Grant Amount + Applicant Expenses Requested Cash Match A Personnel Administrative staff $3,600 $3,600 Artistic staff $22,983 $1,500 $21,483 Technical/Production staff $2,246 $2,246 B Outside Fees and Services Artistic contracts Other contracts: $510 $510 C Space Rental $2,200 $2,200 D Travel E Marketing F Remaining Project Expenses $391 $391 G Total Cash Expenses $31,930 = $1,500 + $30,430 Project Income Cash Income A Admissions B Contracted Services Revenue C Other Revenue(specify) D Private Support Corporate support Foundation support $5,000 Other private support $25,430 E Government Support Federal State/regional(not including this request) Local(not including this request) F Applicant Cash G Grant Amount Requested $1,500 in this application H Total Cash Income $31,930 (must equal Total Cash Expenses, Item G above) G2013-14 Arts Program Application — Page Four ORANGE COUNTY ARTS COMMISSION North Carolina Symphony Signatures Signature of Project Director &4 Date Rob Maddrey, Senior Director of Statewide Development Typed or Printed Name– Project Director � � 3 Signature of Authorizing Official Date Sandi M.A. Macdonald.
