SUMMARY:Hope Academy Spring Recitals #1
DESCRIPTION:The following studios will have recitals on SUN May 5 \n\n\n3:30 pm     Ben Barson (Saxophone\, Clarinet and Ensemble) \n3:30 pm     Doris Weir and Agnieska Sornek (piano) \n5:30 pm     Gizelxanath Rodriguez (voice) \n\n\nRecitals are special occasions designed to give students a chance to share their music and gain valuable performance experience. They provide a benchmark to measure growth from year to year\, and an incentive for students to practice and polish pieces they are working on. \nThere will be many recital sessions scheduled throughout the day in various rooms throughout the church building. Please do not ask to have your child perform at the beginning or the end of their recital session – students and families are expected to be on time and stay for the entire recital that their children are performing in. We are organizing the recital sessions to be about an hour long. \nCOOKIE RECEPTION \nEach family is asked to bring cookies for a reception that will follow the recital. There will be two reception rooms in the front hallway\, leading to the Sanctuary. Rooms will be labeled so that cookies can be placed in the room that corresponds to the student’s studio. Please bring cookies only. It is best if they are on a disposable tray. \nRECITAL ETIQUETTE \nLearning about and practicing recital etiquette is an important part of a student’s musical education\, so we ask that families read and discuss these guidelines with their children. \nPerformer Etiquette \n\nDress appropriately. Choose conservative over casual in terms of shoe styles\, hem length of dresses and straps for tops.\nAvoid jewelry that makes noise as you move; heels that are difficult to walk in; and sleeves that get in the way of playing.\nBe on time. Your teacher will let you know when and where to meet before the recital to warm up. This will be at least 30 minutes prior to the start of the recital. If you are playing with an accompanist\, you may be asked to arrive earlier to rehearse together.\nBe prepared. Make sure you have your music\, instrument and any necessary accessories before leaving home (bow\, rosin\, capo\, tuner\, etc.)\nBe respectful. Refrain from whispering\, talking\, or using electronic devices. Show the other performers the same courtesy you want to be shown.\nEnter and exit with confidence. You should bow at the end and acknowledge the accompanist (if you have one). Teachers will go over this in lessons.\n\nAudience Etiquette \n\nArrive on time or a little early. Late arrivals are distracting to the audience\, and they can be unnerving for the performer.\nTurn off cell phones and other electronic devices. Ring tones and electronic chirps are distracting; and texting\, reading emails and playing games while students are performing is disrespectful.\nDo not cause distractions. Bring something (a quiet game or book) to keep young children under 8 years old occupied. Children over 8 should be able to sit quietly and watch.\nTake disruptive infants or toddlers out of the recital as soon as they become fussy. Please sit close to an aisle so that you can leave without too much commotion. We will come to get you when your child performs.\nDo not talk\, whisper\, rattle papers or eat during the recital.\nStay for the entire performance to show respect for all of the musicians.\n\nPhotos and Video \n\nNo flash photography\, please\nA group photo\, with the teacher\, will be taken at the end of each recital session.

In 2016\, Noah performed the world premiere of his own klezmer violin concerto\, Fidl-Fantazye with the Pittsburgh Symphony\, conducted by Manfred Honeck. Recent and forthcoming highlights include his concerto debut with the Berliner Philharmoniker in January 2018\, recital tours in Taiwan\, China\, and Europe and performances of his klezmer concerto with orchestras in the USA and with the China Philharmonic\, as well as his period instrument debut\, performing the Beethoven Violin Concerto with the Apollo’s Fire Orchestra in Cleveland. \nFrom 2011 until 2015\, Noah was Concertmaster of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. His Pittsburgh debut recital in January 2012 was named the “Best Classical Concert of 2012” by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Noah also performed his own version of “The Star-Spangled Banner” for solo violin in front of 39\,000 fans at the 2013 Pittsburgh Pirates Opening Day at PNC Park. \nBorn in Asheville\, North Carolina\, Noah began playing violin at age 4. At age 9\, he played for Lord Yehudi Menuhin in Switzerland. Noah graduated from the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music and the Munich Hochschule. His principal teachers were Mauricio Fuks\, Christoph Poppen\, and Ana Chumachenco. In his spare time\, he enjoys playing klezmer music. He has played with world-renowned klezmer groups such as Brave Old World\, and has taught klezmer violin at workshops in Europe and in the United States.Noah performs on a Cremonese violin made in 1732 by Carlo Bergonzi. \nROBERT LEVIN \nPianist and Conductor Robert Levin has performed throughout the United States\, Europe\, Australia and Asia.

He continued his precocious accomplishments with his appointment as principal cellist of the Cincinnati Symphony at age 20\, after one year in the Pittsburgh Symphony.  He made his concerto debut at Carnegie Hall in 1986 with the New York String Orchestra conducted by Alexander Schneider.

Mr. Wiley has enjoyed a long-term association with the Marlboro Music Festival and is currently on the faculties of the Bard College Conservatory of Music\, the University of Maryland\, and the Curtis Institute of Music. \nHOW TO BE A GOOD AUDIENCE MEMBER \nIt is important that audience members remain quiet during the performance. Since music is mostly a listening activity\, any extra sounds that are not part of the music can get in the way and will distract and disturb the musicians and other audience members. \nBefore the Concert \n\nWear something you might wear to a special event – because it is!.\nPlease don’t wear anything that might be distracting (light up shoes\, clanging jewelry\, etc)\nArrive no later than 7:00 pm to get your tickets.\n\nBefore You Take Your Seat \n\nTake care of all rest room needs\nLeave all food\, drink\, and gum outside\, in the lobby.\nLeave all cameras and recording devices outside\, as well.\nThere are strict copyright guidelines about recording concerts.Turn off all cell phones\, pagers\, ipads\, watch sounds\, alarms\, or anything that might make a noise.\nThe only sounds that should be heard are the ones that appear in the musical score (and the audience reaction after the music).\n\nOnce You Take Your Seat \n\nA parent or guardian must sit next to each child.\nRemain seated and quiet while the musicians are playing.\nDo not get up during the concert or change seats.\nNo talking\, whispering\, sighing\, tapping or kicking feet\, or rattling of programs or papers.\nBe sure to sit without fidgeting so you don’t distract your neighbors or the performers on stage.\nFeel free to leave during intermission\, if this is a late night for your children; and if they fall asleep during the concert\, that’s okay too. This should be an enjoyable experience for them\, and you!
