The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra’s Talent Development Program Presents Fall Musicale, 10/23
The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra's Talent Development Program, which supports the musical development of young African-American and Latino students, will hold its annual Fall Musicale on Sunday, October 23, 2011, at 4:00 p.m. The Musicale, held in support of the Azira G. Hill Scholarship Fund, will take place in the Richard H. Rich Theatre at the Woodruff Arts Center. The performance is free and open to the public.
The Talent Development Program, which identifies musically-gifted and motivated African-American and Latino youth and prepares them for acceptance into top music programs in preparation for careers as professional musicians, has now become a model for other orchestras across the country. The Azira G. Hill Scholarship Fund, which lies at the heart of the program, was established in November 1999 and provides financial assistance that allows TDP students to attend prestigious national summer music study programs.
This year's Musicale will include performances by current TDP student musicians, and musical selections will include Handel's Adagio and Allegro for cello and bass, Ginastera's Pampeana No. 2, and the Mean Old Pony Tango by Atlanta Symphony Orchestra bassist Michael Kurth, among other chamber music selections. Accomplished conductor and educator G. Phillip Shoultz, III, will serve as the master of ceremonies, and the honorary chairperson for the event is Lynn Schinazi.
All Musicale guests are invited to attend a free post-concert reception where they will have the opportunity to meet TDP student musicians. The event will be held in CenterSpace at the Woodruff Arts Center and light refreshments will be served. RSVPs are preferred, and interested guests should contact Nicole Bird, Education Programs Coordinator, at nicole.bird@woodruffcenter.org or 404-733-4830.
