Sing Along Sound of Music
April 1, 2012 | 2:00 PM | $10.00 - $20.00 | Stockton Performing Arts Center | Website
The evening begins with a live show where the
host leads the audiences through a vocal warm-up, judges the fancy
dress competition and awards the prizes. Costumes are not compulsory
but they are highly recommended and it will be amazing how much
inventiveness will be on display. The host will then explain how to use
free goody bags throughout the film and suggest some appropriate
heckles and accompanying actions (such as hissing the countess, barking
at Rolf and, of course, cheering for Julie).Audiences will sit back and watch the original 1965 movie in glorious Technicolor™ with the lyrics for all the songs on the screen, so no one will miss a chance to sing their hearts out. The audience takes over as the star of the show from this point and almost anything can happen – the first rule of Singa-long-a is THERE ARE NO RULES!

Bay Atlantic Symphony 2012 Education Concerts
May 11 & 15, 2012 | Times Below | Free Events - Reservations Required | Venues Below | Website
Teachers
and music educators should plan now and reserve free tickets for the
2012 education concerts, sponsored by the Bay-Atlantic Symphony.The 2012 Gus Cilento, MD Education Concerts, will take place on Friday, May 11, 2012, at 9:45 and 11:15 a.m., at the Frank Guaracini, Jr. Performing Arts Center, Cumberland County College, Sherman Avenue and College Drive, Vineland, and on Tuesday, May 15, 2012, at 10:30 a.m., at the Richard Stockton College Performing Arts Center, Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway Township. (Teachers and educations are advised that these are the only locations and times for the education concerts this year. Please plan accordingly.)
These 45-minute concerts, entitled “How Music Talks: Earthy, Elegant, and Electric,” will invoke the great variety of moods music can elicit by highlighting great music’s wildly contrasting impressions.
The Bay-Atlantic Symphony and Music Director Jed Gaylin will illustrate this with selections by three works that illustrate these contrasts—Béla Bartók’s Romanian Folk Dances, Georges Bizet’s Symphony in C major, and Ludwig van Beethoven’s Egmont Overture.
Bartók’s music is earthy—rustic folk dance music that speaks of the country and the soil with great rhythmic vitality and color. Bizet’s youthful symphony is elegant—rhythmically flashy with direct, simple, and beautiful melodies. The third movement, with its exotic harmonies of the third movement that speak of the country, contrasts with the fast-paced, exhilarating finale. Beethoven’s driving, bold, fierce, and dramatic overture is electric in its celebration of political heroism, resistance against evil, and the ultimate victory of spirit.
Tickets for these concerts are free because of the generous donations from the Dodge Foundation and Richard Stockton College. To reserve tickets, call (856) 451-1169 for the Cumberland County College concerts and (609) 652-4786 for the Stockton concert. A limited number of free bus vouchers are available on a first come, first served basis. Some of these concerts sell out early, so ticket reservations should be made now.
A thorough study guide, developed by Gaylin and conforming to New Jersey State Core Curriculum standards, will be available shortly on the Symphony’s website.
The “How Music Talks” education concerts, as narrated and conducted by Gaylin, have been performed for over 20,000 young listeners, capturing their imaginations and receiving accolades from students, teachers, parents, and grantors throughout the region.
Now in its 28th season of providing classical music concerts, the Bay-Atlantic Symphony performs concerts and educational programs in Cumberland, Atlantic, Gloucester, and Cape May counties.
