Modernism in music often references the evolving styles of composition, an approach that reinterprets the lessons of traditional songwriting in thoughtful and frequently boundary-pushing ways. Now in its 120th year, Third Street continues to be defined by these horizons of innovation and exploration.

Celebrating an anniversary also prompts Third Street to pause and reflect on how the values of modernism shape its history and its future – particularly as the school continues to push boundaries in its successful approach to music education.

One example of how Third Street has blended traditional and modern elements to develop truly cutting-edge education is the Rock Band program. Students participating in the Rock Program generally range in age from 8-18, and are placed in Rock Bands with students of similar age, creating elementary school, middle school and high school groups. While the repertoire includes classic rock songs from the Rolling Stones and The Beatles, as well as more contemporary artists, it is the program’s emphasis on student compositions that sets it apart from a bevy of similar programs.

“Cover songs are great, but they don’t allow the students to make decisions for themselves,” explains David Moreno, chair of the Guitar Department and head of the Rock Band program. “Where we go from here, what chord progressions work… these are questions already answered when you play a cover song. Original songs encourage problem solving; they’re a richer experience.”

David describes the songwriting process as a collaboration that integrates the voices of both students and the teacher. This constant and creative dialogue, with its emphasis on interpre-tation, is what distinguishes Third Street – where the open curriculum is an opportunity for both the students and teachers to freely explore learning within each class. Discovering each student’s unique potential within a foundation of tra-ditional concepts produces an expe-rience that sparks insight, enriched learning and creativity.

†In December, 2013, Third Street lost one of the School’s greatest champions. Stowe C. Phelps passed away on Christmas Eve at the age of 96. A member of the board of directors since 1968, Stowe’s indelible impact on Third Street inspired the School to name the annual student concert in his honor in 1995. We will miss him dearly.

Through the generosity of his friends and family, Third Street has received many donations made in his memory. We extend our condolences to all who knew him, and thank his friends and family for contributing to his legacy at Third Street through their donations.

THIRD STREET MUSIC SCHOOL SETTLEMENT

Aligning its emphasis on community engagement with its celebration of 120 years of music making, Third Street is aggressively expanding student

performance opportunities to include venues outside of Third Street and across New York City.

“Performance always has been a key piece of the education and experience students receive at Third Street,” explains Shalisa Kline Ugaz, Director of Programs. “It elevates a student’s skills and provides an opportunity for each student to take part in an experience that’s both uniquely challenging as well as rewarding.”

Participating in school concerts is a cornerstone of the Third Street experience. The countless performances presented by the school throughout the year are recurring highlights for students, faculty, families and the general public.

Now Third Street is reaching beyond its walls and into communities near and far in new and exciting ways. In addition to highly-anticipated performances, from weekly Music Hours to the Stowe C. Phelps Annual Student Concert that take place at the school’s Anna-Maria Kellen Auditorium, outside venues are expanding and include NYU’s Skirball Center for the Performing Arts; Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall; The Jerome L. Greene Performance Space; St. Mark’s Church-in-the-Bowery; and Salvation Army’s Centennial Hall. All these unique spaces are focal points of this year’s perfor-mance schedule.

Last December, dozens of Third Street performance groups featuring hundreds of Third Street students put on a spectacular Holiday Concert at NYU’s majestic Skirball

Center. The show included ensembles, choirs, orchestras, jazz bands, dance troupes and the New Horizons Adult Band. In March 2014, Third Street presented a contemporary music concert at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall where – in addition to student performances – Third Street student composers were given an opportunity to present individual works. Students at the Carnegie Hall concert were also given the opportunity to perform works by renowned composers like Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Leo Brouwer, Dina Koston, Jacob TV and Audrey Snyder, as well as a world premier work by Harold Meltzer.

Looking ahead, on June 7, Third Street will present an all-school concert at the Salvation Army’s Centennial Memorial Temple, known as Centennial Hall. This culminating concert will also feature hundreds of Third Street students representing departments across the school.

For many students, these events are a first experience in formal concert hall performance and, for all students, signal progress in their musical and personal journeys. Achieving these heights at such prestigious institutions around the city is invaluable.

Performance experience is essential to stimulating a student’s growth as a musician. By extending the borders of performance beyond school facilities, and by presenting concerts throughout New York City and beyond, Third Street strengthens its sense of community while giving students the opportunity to demonstrate achievement in their personal and musical lives, in a more public setting and for more diverse and larger audiences.

Third Street Names Valerie G. Lewis Executive Director Third Street Music School has selected Valerie G. Lewis as its fifteenth executive director since its founding in 1894. Valerie comes to Third Street with outstanding experience in music education, community arts program ming and not-for-profit develop ment. For the past five years, she served as Executive Director of the Brooklyn Youth Chorus Academy, where she led a period of growth and expansion that has taken BYCA to new heights as both a premier music academy and a pioneering artistic presenter.

“I am so pleased to join the extraordinary team at Third Street and look forward to building on this institution’s rich history and success in providing access to the highest level of arts education,” said Valerie, who will begin in her new post on June 2. “I look forward to working with the families, faculty, staff and board to strengthen and advance Third Street as it proudly enters its 120th anniversary year and beyond.”

A native New Yorker, Valerie began her career in government affairs and communications, and went on to join the Alliance for Downtown New York, where she spent 11 years developing, presenting and marketing dynamic arts programming. She is a proud founder of the River to River Festival, which in the wake of 9/11, harnessed the power of

A new partnership is flourishing on the Lower East Side, as students at P.S. 110 engage in an educational experience rounded out by the artful sights, sounds and flavors of Third Street. It’s all part of Third Street Partners, which brings

Third Street faculty members into 22 partnering schools throughout New York City to participate in a variety of programs like world music, modern dance and drum line.

P.S. 110 students are experiencing musical performance and education in ways that are both culturally and musically stimulating. At the core of the P.S. 110 partnership are Third Street faculty members Robert Randall and Ibrahima Kolipe Camara, who are introducing students to a whole new world of music – literally! Robert and Ibrahima respectively lead classes in General Music/Chorus and African Percussion that educate students in different cultures within their curriculum.

In Robert’s music and chorus activities, students learn about music with roots in Spain, France, Italy, South Africa and China, and often sing songs in foreign languages. Meanwhile, Ibrahima’s African Percussion classes focus on the history and culture of Guinea, helping students express themselves in multinational, musical ways.

Third Street’s core curriculum is well-rounded, and its faculty is a powerful sustainer of this comprehensive perspective. Beyond educating students about the nature and history of music, teachers place a strong emphasis on performance. Beginning in fourth grade, students are challenged to prepare for performances at the end of each semester that demonstrate growth in artistic skill and musical vocabulary.

P.S. 110 Principal Karen Feuer is a strong advocate of music’s value within a student’s educational experience. Her sensitivity to the school’s unique partnership with Third Street has paved the way for music and dance education to influence each P.S. 110 student. The school’s mission calls for a rigorous academic

environment enhanced by exposure to the arts. P.S. 110’s promotion of the Third Street program validates this vision and directly benefits each student involved.

Already, 13 students are advancing their pathway to musical and educational excellence by registering for Third Street classes after school through a tuition-free program known as Partners@Third. After recent P.S. 110 performances, countless parents lined up to share stories about how enthused their children were regarding their music classes and the instructors.

As Third Street Partners evolves, opportunities like what’s happening at P.S. 110 are sprouting up throughout the city. With these important collaborations, students are able to experience the joy and growth that accompanies a music education that is uniquely Third Street.

World Vision at P.S. II0P A R T N E R S C H O O L S P O T L I G H T :

Rock Band continued from cover Songwriting carries over into many

different Third Street departments, most notably the Center for Music Theory & Composition, where students are educated in songwriting styles of numerous genres and given opportunities to compose pieces for multiple performance types.

“Developing one’s own voice is an art that Third Street values and encourages,” says Matthew Barnson, chair of the Music Theory & Composition Department. “While the evolution of song composition can be both challenging and unpredictable, it often reaps the highest rewards above all other efforts a student makes in his or her musical – and many times personal – journey.”

The performance of a composition can

be as satisfying and beneficial as its creation. Both the composition classes and rock band ensembles perform numerous concerts throughout the year, giving students the opportunity to introduce their own compo-sitions or have them performed by other Third Street students. These opportunities, which few aspiring musicians have, intro-duce students to new skills in a supportive environment that celebrates learning and success.

The Third Street approach pushes traditional boundaries to get more out of its students. It’s an attitude that is very rock and very modern, and one of the many reasons why Third Street remains on the front line of music education.

music, dance and visual arts to revitalize Lower Manhattan.

“Third Street is moving boldly into the future with exciting and visionary plans to improve its space and expand its programs. Valerie brings tremendous skill, energy and commitment to this future,” said Board Chairman Vincent C. Perro. “The Board looks forward to working with Valerie and the entire community to achieve Third Street’s goals of access and excellence for its students, for the diverse communities it serves, and as a national leader in community arts education.”

Welcome, Valerie!

5Chiu-Chen Liu is an accomplished violinist and violist, a graduate of the Manhattan School of Music and Mannes College of Music, and

an active chamber and orchestra musician who in recent years has appeared with the American Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra of St. Luke’s, American Chamber Music Ensemble and many other notable groups. This school year, Chiu-Chen joins Third Street as Chair of the Strings Department.

As the new chairperson, Chiu-Chen brings years of experience as a dedicated teacher at institutions like Greenwich Alliance for Education, Connecticut School of Music and Mannes College. And her passion for teaching is evident in the personal and respectful approach she takes with her students.

“I treat students as independent musicians,” she explains. “Every person on an instrument is both a student and a musician. As a teacher, I focus on both these aspects of their experience to encourage growth throughout the entirety of their musical journey.”

One of the main things Chiu-Chen encourages in her students is collaboration with fellow students and teachers, particularly at younger ages. Her goal for the department is to provide students with an opportunity to pass beyond the limitations of a private studio and work closely with other musicians. Highlighting her value of collaboration, Chiu-Chen makes a point to accompany her students in performance.

“There’s a limit to what you can communicate verbally,” Chiu-Chen says. “Students react from the energy and flow of playing alongside a teacher much more strongly and intuitively than they would if you were only speaking with them.” She continues, “It’s also a way to narrow the distance between the student and faculty—if you demonstrate your respect for each student, they respond with the confidence and appreciation needed for growth.”

On the horizon for Chiu-Chen and the Strings Department is a new string group for younger musicians called Overture, taking the stage next fall alongside Third Street’s orchestras for older students: Con Spirito, Sinfonia and Philharmonia.

Apart from working with students on collaboration, Chiu-Chen has also been working with Third Street’s community of faculty members to develop programs that include multiple departments. Most recently she’s worked with a string trio and dance group. It’s an opportunity to be creative in a thriving atmosphere of musicians and educators, with the results benefiting students, faculty and the community as a whole.

Something extraordinary is happening at Third Street Preschool that has children singing and dancing. All it takes is a quick glance to notice the toe-tapping of parents, faculty and caregivers, too!

Since September, children from all Preschool classes have gathered twice each month to engage in the time-honored tradition of sing-alongs. Instructors lead groups in songs that are both familiar and new, at the same time encouraging each child to individually contribute movements or lyrics to performances – all of which foster interaction and new skills.

Once a month, the sing-along circle expands to include children’s parents, grandparents and caregivers. It’s an opportunity for families to see children “in action” within a classroom setting, and is a time for children to experience the essential bridge between home and school.

Third Street has a strong appreciation of the caregiver role in a child’s education – recognition of its value that is distinctive among other early childhood institutions. By facilitating these connections and including them as vital elements of a student’s curriculum, Third

Street is engaging Preschoolers who are finding themselves within an enriching environment that is an early stepping stone to a creative and musical life.

The process in building this early stepping stone begins by finding the right voice for each child. Elaine Winter, Director of Third Street Preschool and Early Childhood Programs, explains the Third Street approach: “Each student is different,” she says. “Students learn differently, have different tastes. Education must reflect each child’s unique identity – and that starts by involving the parents and caregivers.”

To ensure that students receive a well-rounded education, Third Street works with each child’s parents or caregivers to develop a specific course of action. The techniques established include how to communicate most effectively with each student, as well as which instruments are best to encourage. And a parent’s

or caregiver’s involvement is not limited to their input; it also includes joining the children in

their education and activities, as the sing-alongs at Third Street suggest.

These programs and way of learning open the door to Third Street’s Pathway to Excellence – a progression of musical

achievements and education that provides each student with the best possible opportunity to succeed in the goals they set. It’s an approach that helps each child build lasting friendships and important skills of communication and learning, with

every interaction being an opportunity to gain new perspectives.

Elaine is emphatic about the effectiveness of the Third Street method. “Beginning the Pathway in the earliest years of childhood is an invaluable opportunity for our children to achieve excellence within music and dance study at Third Street. Their lives are enriched with enjoyment, experience and education, and the passion they develop lasts a lifetime.”

In February, piano faculty member Roger Peltzman visited the Kazerne Dossin Museum and Memorial in Mechelen, Belgium to perform pieces from his new recording, Dedication: Roger Peltzman Plays Chopin. The recording was made as a tribute to Roger’s uncle Norbert Stern, a brilliant pianist who died during the Holocaust.

José Pietri-Coimbre, string department faculty member and member of One World Symphony, performed as part of One World’s Breaking Bad-inspired opera, Breaking Bad – Ozymandias. One World Symphony has dedicated itself to

adventurous and engaging programming, and this past January’s opera and symphony, conducted by Sung Jin Hong, was incredibly well received. The run featured two sold-out performances at the Church of the Holy Apostles in New York City.

In celebration of the one hundredth birthday of Benjamin Britten – considered one of England’s greatest composers – Third Street string department faculty member Emily Brausa performed all three of the composer’s cello suites in one eve-ning at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Astoria, Queens. Emily’s feat is considered

especially remarkable, as the suites were originally written for celebrated cellist Mstislav Rostropovich, and are widely regarded as some of the greatest pieces in the cello repertoire.

Adam Marks, Third Street’s Artistic Director of Chamber Music Programs, recently launched [interplay], a project aimed at sharing music from around the globe. Adam received funds to travel to Singapore, Brazil and Croatia last fall, and in each locale performed, taught and met with composers and musicians to learn more about their culture and current

music. While traveling, Adam collected scores from each country and built a solo recital featuring works alongside videos to give context to each piece. The performance had its premiere on Saturday, February 15 at the Sunnyvale Theatre in Sunnyvale, CA. Adam plans more performances and an extensive tour to promote this project.

Eddy Malave, string department faculty member at Third Street, will be taking his instruction abroad this summer by pre-senting and teaching the Alexander Technique at the University of Greenwich in the United Kingdom. The Alexander

Technique is a teaching method that focuses on physical coordination which can help musicians to strengthen fundamental performance and conduct.

Third Street’s Communication Manager, Brett Spigelman, is on tour this spring playing playing bass with the band Panama Wedding, who recently signed to Glassnote Records. The tour features more than 25 dates across the U.S. and Canada.

In February, dedicated teachers from across the greater metropolitan area made their way to Third Street for “Creative Strategies for Early Childhood

Music Instruction,” an interactive professional development conference on best practices in the field.

Produced in collaboration with Barbara Murray, the New York City Department of Education’s Director of Music, the confer-ence took place on three Tuesdays. Each afternoon, 60 teachers rushed from their respective schools to Third Street’s audito-rium. The walls resonated as their voices joined in a noontime round. Then the teach-ers divided into three groups to rotate through concurrent workshops. The sessions includ-ed “Drama as a Musical Medium,” “Playing with Poetry” and “Movement – the More, the Better!” In each room, participating teachers became the students.

February’s professional development conference was grounded in the music education approach of legendary composer and educator Carl Orff. Orff believed that young children learn music best through a combination of movement, singing, instru-ment playing and improvisation. Danai Gagne, internationally-acclaimed Orff clinician and Third Street faculty member, was the content advisor for the conference. Ms. Gagne underscored the importance of

the workshops. “It is vital that music teachers in public schools broaden their horizons, try out new things. We all have a pressing need to renew ourselves by branching into more global experiences for our students.”

Working closely with Ms. Gagne, Third Street assembled a “who’s who” of Early Childhood Music specialists to design and teach the workshop sessions. In addition to Ms. Gagne, instructors included:

Sheri Gottlieb, Associate Director of the Music Partners Program at the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music;

Laura Koulish, Third Street Music School and Brooklyn Conservatory of Music faculty member;

Judy Lasko, Third Street faculty member, modern dancer and teacher with 45 years of experience;

Monika Linkweiler, Early Childhood Music and Movement faculty member at Third Street for more than 25 years;

Mik Manenti, faculty member at Third Street, drama therapist and Orff specialist;

Sheila O’Shea, teacher at The School at Columbia University;

Stuart Pyle, music teacher and arts coordinator at P.S. 142 in Manhattan, a Third Street Partner school;

Judith Thomas Solomon, internationally-renowned teacher of Orff Schulwerk;

Katie Troups Traxler, pre-K-5 Music teacher at P.S. 51 Elias Elementary School.

Workshop participants hailed from NYC public schools, independent schools and cultural organizations including Carnegie Hall. Their response was overwhelmingly enthusiastic. Feedback included, “I learned so much,” “hands on songs and activities,” and “reminders of best practices and how to create magic in the music classroom.”

Good professional development is a powerful thing. By sharing compelling curriculum and effective approaches with workshop participants, master teachers can impact literally thousands of children. Third Street believes that Creative Strategies is just the beginning of its work in this arena.
