EDUCATION AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH 2014

Musical events for children, students, teachers and families

32

The MSO’s innovative Education and Community Outreach program provides wonderful opportunities for children to be introduced to the joy of music.

From active music-making of the Family Jams to the programs focused on specific age groups from Prep to Year 12, the Orchestra’s programs for schools, parents, grandparents, teachers and amateur musicians provide accessible pathways to music for people of all ages.

Music is a vital part of a child’s education. It encourages listening and team work, inspires creativity and lets imaginations soar. I encourage you to get involved in this wonderful series of initiatives.

Mrs ElizabEth ChErnov Patron, Melbourne SyMPhony orcheStra education and coMMunity outreach PrograM

This brochure is your guide to the vast range of Education and Community Outreach programs available to you from the MSO in 2014. From concerts and activities for children through to opportunities for adults (of whatever age) to perform side-by-side with members of the MSO, our programs are designed to integrate learning and musical enjoyment, and inspire active participation in music.

My profound thanks to our individuals, Trusts, Foundations and Government partners who help us bring these programs to life.

Best wishes for a great year of music.

australian composition Post 1910: katy abbott Introduced Species

Dr Katy Abbott composer and presenter

Luke Dollman conductor

Join Melbourne-based composer Katy Abbott as she presents her new work – Introduced Species – in a live performance workshop at three schools across metropolitan Melbourne. Inspired by the paintings of the same title by Australian artist, Matthew Quick, Katy’s composition explores the impact that human interference can have on music in the same way that Matthew’s art explores the impact that human interference can have on our environment.

Supported by a comprehensive online resource, the performance workshops will include:

• a performance of the work by musicians of the MSO;

• a detailed analysis of the work by the composer;

• an introduction to Matthew Quick’s artwork;

• a discussion around the environment.

A draft score of Introduced Species will be available for purchase from the Australian Music Centre from the start of Term 1. This will be automatically updated once the final version has been lodged in the week following these performances.

This program and its affiliated resource has been specifically designed to link in with the following VCE Music Study Design outcomes:

• MUSIC PERFORMANCE Unit 2: Outcome 4 Unit 3 and 4: Outcome 3

• MUSIC INVESTIGATION Units 3 and 4: Outcome 2

• MUSIC, STYLE AND COMPOSITION Units 1-4 (especially 3-4): Outcomes 2 and 3

“What an amazing experience. Within one

session the students morphed into dynamo packed performers,

supporting and encouraging one another and producing creative music.

Reluctant students were soon swept away in these inspirational and creative sessions,

empowering them with the self confidence to be able to share what they had learnt with other

students back at school.

This experience will help provide lifelong memories for many of our students.”

The Pizzicato Effect is a partnership between the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Meadows Primary School which creates new learning pathways for children in Broadmeadows through the introduction of instrumental music teaching. The pilot program commenced in 2009 to provide a shared focus for two schools which were merging at the time as a result of a community regeneration project.

In 2014, the program will provide access to quality music education for students across the whole school, commencing with Kodály training, and progressing to group instrumental lessons on violin, viola, cello or double bass. Upon entering Grade 5, those displaying a connection to their instrument are invited to continue their tuition in a more individualised environment.

Additionally, an after-school string orchestra provides senior students in the program with the opportunity to further their skills as instrumentalists and learn to work, respond and play together in an ensemble environment. The MSO provides all instruments and weekly instrumental and aural lessons lead, by a team of MSO teaching artists. Performance opportunities and the option for children, families and teachers to access MSO concerts are also facilitated.

The impact of the program within the school and the Broadmeadows community has been very positive. The children have developed a strong relationship with their MSO mentors and a love of music, and their classroom teachers have reported improved focus, self confidence, grades and behaviour. Formal research into the developmental assets, social-emotional wellbeing and educational impact acquired from participation in The Pizzicato Effect is currently being conducted by the University of Melbourne.

The Pizzicato Effect is generously supported by a number of individual donors and Foundations. On the basis of the impact, momentum and extraordinary motivation now being experienced, further support is currently being sought to ensure the project and its potential for these students and others is realised into the future.

To find out how you can contribute to The Pizzicato Effect, please call Jessica Frean at the MSO on (03) 96261107 or email [email protected]

The Schapper Family Foundation

“This program is affording our children so many

valuable opportunities, and the transformation in the children

and their confidence across all areas of learning and social interaction

is without doubt. Yet the single most important achievement and benefit of this

initiative, from my perspective, is that The Pizzicato Effect is helping our

children take pride in who they are.”
