Elementary school students in grades 3-6 enjoyed a free classical concert by the Bay Atlantic Symphony at Stockton University’s Performing Arts Center on Tues., May 10. The concert was made possible by the Schultz-Hill Foundation, which funds arts education programs for students and seniors in the region. The youth concert has been an ongoing commitment from the Foundation for many years to bring awareness of the fine arts including classical music to our youth.
The orchestra performed Aaron Copland’s “Appalachian Spring,” a musical piece that tells the story of a young frontier couple on their wedding day. Jed Gaylin, the symphony’s music director, both conducted and offered informative commentary in between the musical movements. The concert was attended by students from the Principle Academy Charter School in Egg Harbor Twp. Students had an opportunity to prepare for the concert with lessons on classical composers, and more. “Our students completed a series of lessons led by music teacher Rebecca Palamara,” said Dr. Peter Caporilli, Founder and CEO of Principle Academy Charter. “Not only did she teach them about the composer and the piece that they would hear but the students explored how musicians compose music and how music is used in symphonies, ballets and other art forms. Ms. Palamara also instructed them on proper concert manners, since that is an important part of the concert experience.” “It's wonderful for students to be able to see a classical orchestra perform live,” he said. “Principle Academy Charter School is grateful for this opportunity, and for the tremendous support of the Schultz-Hill Foundation and its many benefactors.” The concert is part of the Schultz-Hill Foundation’s dedication to promote and support arts, history and education in South Jersey via educational scholarships, direct grants and funding for the Arts, historical and musical programs.
