Activity 2

MUSIC MEMORYThis year, the music education program Riverside Symphony introduced to New York City schools in 1999, served approximately 5,500 third through sixth graders and their teachers from 40 schools citywide. The program combines an innovative classroom-learning program (including NYC-DOE-accredited professional development workshops for participating teachers) with an annual Citywide Music Memory Finals, an event at which students, cheered on by classmates, are called upon to identify the composer and title of the works they have learned throughout the school year. This season's Finals, which took place at BMCC Tribeca Performing Arts Center on May 22, featured Riverside Symphony and singers, and 34 competing teams from 22 participating schools. There is no cost to the schools for participation in this program.

Activity 3

Other Programs - TICKET SUBSIDY PROGRAMBeginning with its first concert thirty-one years ago, Riverside Symphony has been committed to bringing great music to as wide an audience as possible. Today, the orchestra continues to serve New Yorkers of limited means by making tickets to its subscription concerts available on a subsidized basis to those for whom cost is a barrier. The orchestra's ticket subsidy program provides free or deeply discounted admission to individuals served by social service, and health and welfare centers; senior programs; and educational institutions selected as partners from diverse community organizations based throughout the five boroughs. More than 30 community organizations participated in the orchestra's ticket subsidy program in the 2011-2012 season.
