Need Addressed:

Because of economic problems, Yourcity Public Schools has eliminated instrumental music education in the elementary schools. Since research shows important benefits of music education for young children, this lack can have long term effects on students in several academic areas.

 

Program Synopsis:

The target audience for our Instrumental Music Program is the 2,000 students in grades four and five of Yourcity Public Schools. Each student will learn about orchestral instruments and hear four live chamber music performances.  In addition, all students will attend a full concert by a professional symphony orchestra.

 

Outcome:

The initial outcome is that the students will gain knowledge and appreciation for instrumental music. A longer term outcome is that the program will inspire students to study a musical instrument in middle school.

 

Request:

Yourcity Symphony Orchestra requests a grant of $8,000 to support this program, the total cost of which is $45,179.
