BIOGR APHIES Sabrina Raber has been composing ever since she first started playing piano. She draws her inspiration from the simple sounds and silences from the world around her and loves fiddling with the piano in hopes that a masterpiece could arise. In addition to composing in her spare time, Sabrina also has been taking piano lessons at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music for nine years, has been studying flute with Carol Meves for seven years and occasionally likes to play around with the many other instruments around her house. In MYSO, Sabrina is part of the Senior Symphony and Chamber Flute Ensemble groups and loves being a part of them, rehearsing the incredible music she follows as her model. Outside of the musical world, Sabrina swims competitively, runs around Whitefish Bay, draws, reads, writes and occasionally plays softball. She believes in music telling a story, and it is this belief that led her to compose the piece you are hearing today. Changing the world and doing the right thing has long been her muse, and she wrote Proelio Morum (Latin for Battle of Morality) as a way to express
this constant struggle of choosing what is right in everyday life. The viola solo leads the way as a bastion of innocence in forming what she hopes, in the same way the piece is resolved, that good will eventually win over all. She’d like to thank her composing coach, Ron Foster, for helping her write this piece, especially with it being her first time writing for a string orchestra, her family and friends for dealing with her through the process and the many teachers who listened to draft after draft in order to make it the best it could be. Currently a seventh grader at Lake Shore Middle School in Mequon, Abigail Keller began her violin lessons at age seven; she also studies piano. She enjoys playing tennis, and outdoor activities including hiking, biking and camping. At school, Abigail’s favorite subjects are Math, French and English. She loves her house pets and her favorite pet is Masha, a black Pomeranian. She also loves to argue with her brother, Garrison, but sometimes they declare peace and play music duets together.

J O H N D OW N E Y C R E AT I O N P R OJ E C T MYSO is proud to collaborate with one of America’s premier new music ensembles, Present Music, as we bring twelve world premiere student compositions to performance this year. In memory of Dr. John Downey, both a visionary composer and an inspiring man, MYSO musicians are invited to have the opportunity to meet with professionals who guide them from the early structural and conceptual issues of composition through the final printing and rehearsals of their work. The John Downey Creation Project provides MYSO ensembles, as well as MYSO composers, important and exciting experience by undertaking the many challenges of new music. John Downey served as Director of Music Theory and Composition for Music For Youth/MYSO for more than 40 years and was a very important and beloved member of the MYSO family until his passing in 2004. Dr. Downey, a Distinguished Professor of Music at UW-Milwaukee, was an internationally renowned composer who collaborated with the great artists of his time and, among many honors, was knighted by the French government. Among many pieces performed by musicians all over the world, he wrote a number of works for Music For Youth/MYSO, as his MYSO students were an essential and joyous part of his career. Professor Downey played a critically important role in the lives of thousands of students, several of whom have become noted composers. He was absolutely central to our organization and mission for many years. The 2012 John Downey Fellows and the MYSO ensemble for which they are composing are as follows: Shawn Head, Chamber Orchestra; Isaac Young, Senior Symphony; Sabrina Raber, Sinfonia; Amanda Wahl, Brass Ensemble as part of MYSO’s Chamber Ensembles Program; Max Lin, Woodwind Ensemble as part of MYSO’s Chamber Ensembles Program; Elaine Hyke, Junior Wind Ensemble; Torrin Hallett and Frances Way, Philharmonia; Nova Terkhorn, String Orchestra Central and West. We are confident that Dr. Downey would be thrilled by the enthusiasm, creativity and the seriousness of purpose displayed by these young MYSO composers, to whom he would have referred as “my geniuses.”

M I LWAU K E E YO U T H S Y M P H O N Y O R C H E S T R A Celebrating 56 years of excellence, Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra (MYSO) has been instrumental in changing the lives of young people since 1956 when it began as a single orchestra of 30 musicians. Since its early beginnings, it has grown to become, by several measures, the largest and most extensive youth orchestra program in the country. Serving more than 900 talented young musicians from as many as 14 counties in southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois, this award-winning program offers the highest level of training in ensemble musicianship to motivated young people from diverse backgrounds. Students with varied levels of instrumental skills benefit from the broad range of MYSO experiences, all created to foster talent, build character and enhance lives by nurturing an enduring love of music. In 2005, MYSO moved into the acclaimed Milwaukee Youth Arts Center, a collaborative initiative of MYSO and First Stage Children’s Theater. Home, also, to dance and vocal music training programs, this 56,000 sq. ft. state of the art facility in Milwaukee’s historic Schlitz Park is quickly becoming a national model for arts education, with a mission of using the arts to enhance all children’s lives. Several innovative MYSO offerings, prompted and made possible by the move, have received notable awards and recognition—locally, regionally and nationally—particularly for MYSO’s ambitious efforts in outreach and community partnerships. Building on the rich past of its first half-century, MYSO combines many respected, established programs with exciting new ventures. Founded with assistance from the Junior League and Rotary Club of Milwaukee, MYSO has expanded its offerings to include: Senior Symphony—MYSO’s flagship ensemble, a full symphony orchestra made up of very advanced players, generally in the upper grades of high school. It has long been recognized as one of the nation’s top youth music ensembles, hailed for artistic excellence both nationally and internationally. Philharmonia—A full symphony orchestra which provides musicians with experience in preparing a great variety of shorter works from the romantic to post-modern periods; comprised generally of younger high school musicians. Chamber Orchestra—A subset of the Senior Symphony, this very advanced group is organized to play standard chamber orchestra repertoire—music not generally played by the large symphony orchestras. Sinfonia/Junior Symphony Orchestra—A large, intermediate-level string orchestra whose members are generally in middle school and early high school. In the spring, selected wind players from the Junior Wind Ensemble augment this group to form the Junior Symphony Orchestra, playing full orchestra literature. Junior Wind Ensemble—An intermediate-level wind ensemble comprised of woodwind, brass and percussion players in grades 6-9. String Orchestra—A string training program, which rehearses as four smaller groups at regional sites around the area (Central, North, South and West). These groups combine to perform as two large string orchestras. Winter Concerts 27
M I LWAU K E E YO U T H S Y M P H O N Y O R C H E S T R A ( c o n t .) Chamber Flute Ensemble—An advanced, multi-part flute choir that works on cutting edge, advanced flute ensemble repertoire and more sophisticated arrangements of orchestral repertoire. Flute Chorale—A multi-part flute choir that plays standard flute ensemble repertoire and arrangements of orchestral repertoire. Members are generally in middle school or early high school. Progressions—An intensive, introductory string training program consisting of lessons and orchestra experience; directed toward City of Milwaukee populations which have previously been under-represented in MYSO. Jazz Studies—A constellation of classes and small combo opportunities for middle and high school students, with a special focus on City of Milwaukee students. Calypso—A steel band in the Trinidadian tradition, originally formed in partnership with Milwaukee Public Schools. White Rock Elementary initiative—A beginning string instrument training program at White Rock Elementary School, a predominantly Latino public school in downtown Waukesha.

M I LWAU K E E YO U T H S Y M P H O N Y O R C H E S T R A ( c o n t .) MYSO’s extensive schedule of rehearsals, performances, outreach initiatives and enrichment opportunities also includes: a large chamber music program, music theory and composition classes, “side-by-side” rehearsals which combine less experienced players with those who are more advanced, free master classes, workshops, competitions, recitals and much more. MYSO has partnered with numerous other organizations to better serve both students and community. Examples of these collaborations, in addition to the facility initiative with First Stage Children’s Theater, include “side-by-side” reading workshops with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, an annual concert with the Milwaukee Children’s Choir, Jazz Collab, a joint venture with the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, a “new music” composition initiative with Present Music, a talent development partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs, ongoing programs in cooperation with Milwaukee Public Schools and periodic artistic initiatives with such groups as Danceworks, Master Singers and Milwaukee Choristers. MYSO’s talented music faculty members blend creativity and pedagogical expertise with their great breadth of musical knowledge. They come from all corners of the musical world and include UW-Milwaukee faculty, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra players, seasoned and recognized school educators and other noted area musicians. MYSO’s experienced, capable administrative staff has doubled organization’s enrollment over the past fifteen years while successfully completing the fundraising for—and building of—a major new community facility. The entire MYSO family is united in its dedication not only to training future performers and music educators but especially to instilling in many thousands of young people a much deeper appreciation of the arts—fine music in particular. While participation in most MYSO ensembles is tuition-based, we have a longstanding commitment to making our programs available to all qualified musicians; scholarship assistance is available upon application, and no student shall be denied an opportunity to participate because of financial need. A major community initiative to raise $2 million in scholarship funds (“Fran’s Fund”) is underway, with plans to complete the effort by June 2012. MYSO has been a member of the United Performing Arts Fund since UPAF’s founding in 1969. We are grateful to UPAF and to the thousands of other generous donors who make our programs possible!
