The Conductor of the Choral Concert was, PCC concert choir and chamber singers, Rodger Guerrero who has just joined the Pasadena City College Faculty a year ago. Additionally, Marina Fortuna Dean was the director of the Opera scenes.

Williams connection with this orchestra stems from his position as their conductor from 1980-1993 (although he still acts as the Laureate Conductor with the organisation). Along with the orchestra, he recorded numerous tracks for Sony and Phillips' classical labels, including award-winning albums, along with entertaining audiences live with classic and contemporary commissioned pieces. Some of the most memorable performances were

Joanne Lipman’s memoir And the Orchestra Played On is about the lasting bonds music can have on members of a community who engage – whether it be as listeners or musicians – in music together. She reflects on the death of her beloved childhood music teacher, Mr. K, and the coming together of his student for one final concert. Lipman ties her introduction and conclusion together to develop her message. In both, someone is searching for music: Lipman for her viola, and a girl only known as the sister of a boy whose funeral Lipman and the rest of the orchestra player at over 30 years previous. Lipman suggests that the search for music is actually a search for belongingness because the bond of music gives

When Antony is heard speaking to the crowd, it was rather clear that he could inspire large groups of people to take action with a startling eloquence given to him. A person that can inspire will very often be a better leader

When Still graduated from high school, he attended medical school at Wilberforce University, in Ohio. He conducted the university band, learned to play many types of instruments, and started to compose and to do orchestrations. He was awarded a scholarship to

Ever since his father began teaching him as a child to play the violin and clavier, any keyboard instrument such as the harpsichord, Ludwig van Beethoven has been amongst the most renowned and influential composers of music. Despite the harsh punishments and mistreatment Beethoven suffered through while practicing with his father, he still managed to become a “prodigy” at a rather young age, having his first public recital at around seven years old. After his first recital role music played in his continued to grow, and soon after dropping out of school to pursue music “full time” he published his first composition.

Dr. Howard Hanson enjoyed a celebrated international music career including becoming the first composer to enter the American Academy in Rome in 1921, an appointment as director of the Eastman School of Music in 1924, and winning a Pulitzer Prize in 1944 for his Symphony No. 4. Chorale and Alleluia was Dr. Hanson's first of five works for wind band, commissioned in 1954 by Edwin Franko Goldman for the American Bandmasters Association.

Also among Beethoven’s teachers, though later in his life, were Johann Georg Albrechtsberger, an organist at the imperial court in Vienna whom he studied under until 1795, and Antonio Salieri; Mozart’s old rival whom Beethoven learned vocal composition in the same period he was studying under Albrechtsberger. Before Albrechtsberger and Salieri was a man named Haydn, whom he studied under for a period of about three years starting in 1792 until 1794 when Haydn moved to London. It is said that Beethoven admired Haydn so much that he was the only man he had ever bent his knee to kiss the hand of. Finally, Beethoven studied under Aloys Forster, a specialist in writing scores for quartets. It is plane to see that throughout his life, his talent was not only constructed through his love of music, but forged by his exposure to multiple mediums and teachings throughout his life.

Through weekly private lessons, chamber, wind, and orchestra ensemble playing, and assiduous independent practice, I have improved immensely as a trombonist and musician. My work paid off when I was accepted into Boston University’s Tanglewood Institute. At this nationally competitive program, I spent six weeks with talented, dedicated students while rubbing shoulders with the Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO). I had never heard elite musicians live before the BSO. Their concerts brought tears to my eyes and my drive to make music at the highest level grew. After receiving instruction from these musicians and hearing their own performances, I refined my technique and made more tasteful musical decisions.

I have been involved with music my whole life. I started playing violin at the age of 8, and my passion for music has only grown bigger since. As a result, this has lead to many leadership opportunities and I believe that this will aid me in fulfilling the responsibilities as president. For example, I was concertmaster of the CPES Orchestra, the LRIS Orchestra, the MTMS Orchestra and the 2015 LLMEA Middle School Orchestra. These positions taught me not only how to be a leading figure in an orchestra, but also how to communicate with the director, my section, and the orchestra as a whole. Furthermore, I spent the last three years mentoring children in music within the Music For Everyone
