MARTIN COUNTY — “So many people have said to me, ‘If it wasn’t for Janie, I wouldn’t have started painting.’” Galen Guberman spoke about his wife many knew best by her artist’s signature, Ejan. Jane Blatt was a member of the Palm City Art Associates, the Martin County Arts Council, Artists for a Cause, Art Associates of Martin County, Hobe Sound Fine Arts League, and the Elliott Museum, along with the Lighthouse ArtCenter Museum & Gallery. Jane died on Feb. 3 at the Martin Medical Center, Stuart. She was 69. There’ll be a memorial service for her at 7 p.m. on March 3, at the Forest Hills Funeral Home, 2001 S.W. Murphy Road, Palm City. Galen said Jane was not just the sanguine personality and outstanding artist Martin County had known since 1999. He said she was also an exceptional teacher who chose the

Obama’s budget calls for more Everglades money STAFF WRITER

TREASURE COAST — This year’s presidential budget includes nearly double the amount of funding for Everglades restoration, which would benefit the PRSRT STD US POSTAGE PAID FORT PIERCE, FL PERMIT NO. 248 ECRWSS

St. Lucie River and Indian River Lagoon. The total $124 million in funding includes $60 million for the second phase of the C-44 canal project, which is to provide water treatment facilities and retention ponds for nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorous to settle before entering local waterways.
Last year’s C-44 budget for Phase 1 and the start of Phase 2 was $38 million. It also budgets for $30 million for projects to help move water south of Lake Okeechobee, and $17 million for the Kissimmee River Restoration Project that will help reduce run-off into the lake. Farmers would benefit, too,
with an additional $13 million available to pay them to conserve water in retention ponds, rather than let, nutrient-rich water pollute waterways. “This is a great step forward for our local waterways,” Rep. Patrick Murphy said.

JANE from page A1 toughest students to teach. “Jane taught (learning disabled) students for 32 years,” he said. “She was the best teacher of LD children in the city of New York and I’d put her up against anybody in the United States.” Galen was principal at Pub-
lic School 161, Bronx, when an intimidating man came calling to see Jane. “Some guy walks into the building and he’s huge,” Galen said. “He says, ‘I’m looking for Jane Blatt.’” Galen, unsure of who the fella was, intercepted him. “He said, ‘She was my first grade teacher and I’m down on leave
from the Navy, and if it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t have had a family, I wouldn’t have graduated high school.’” Galen said he escorted the man to Jane’s room. Despite the years’ passage, she knew her student immediately. “She came to the door and she burst into smiles,” Galen said. “He leaned down and picked her up and he hugged her.” Galen said many contacted Jane to tell her that she made the difference between them going on to having lives of despair, or getting college degrees. Jane was born in Oakridge, Tenn., and grew up in Ohio. She received a fine-arts scholarship to Ohio State University. She went on to earn masters degrees at Columbia University and Hunter College. While teaching in New York, Jane studied graphic design, figure drawing and photography. Additionally, she was self-taught in calligraphy and jewelry design. “She could turn a broken shoe into a ring,” Galen said. After moving to the area, Jane continued studying art under Carol Keep. Jane was a skilled promotor of the arts as well; she befriended many in the press and had a knack for getting coverage for events and organizations. Ad-

will guarantee that anyone that has met or spent time with Jane Blatt will have a story to tell. If you met her, then you remembered her. She made sure of that. Jane and I were not ‘besties’. We would see each other at art-related events I would be photographing for our newspaper, but Jane made everyone feel noticed, wanted and desired. Sometimes I would try to be stealthy in an effort to get the most candid image of an event. Apparently that didn’t ring right

with Jane because she would loudly announce my entrance on site, drop what she was doing and personally escort me to her station of art or group of friends. I can probably write a column for each encounter with Jane, but today I will share the most memorable. Jane and I (and a host of other community artists) were nominated for a mARTies Award through the Martin County Arts Council in late 2013. The awards ceremonies were scheduled for January 2014. Jane had apparently seen the list of nominations before I had known about it when she called

Keeping up with new tax guidelines The IRS and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services are planning outreach efforts during filing season to remind taxpayers about new requirements under the Affordable Care Act. These projects will highlight the individual shared responsibility requirement, exemptions to the individual mandate, and more. The IRS has already posted information about the Affordable Care Act on its website for taxpayers and tax professionals. The agency reported it will continue to work with tax professionals to give individuals the information they need to file their returns. Shared responsibility payment Unless exempt, individuals without minimum essential coverage will make a shared responsibility payment. For 2014, the individual shared responsibility payment is the greater of: 1 percent of household income that is above the tax return filing threshold for the individual’s filing status; or the individual’s flat dollar amount, which is $95 per adult and $47.50 per child, limited to a family maximum of $285, but capped at the cost of the national average premium for a bronze level health plan available through the Marketplace in 2014. For 2014, the annual national average premium for a bronze level health plan available
Michael Repoli through the Marketplace, is $204 per month per individual, but $1,020 per month for a family with five or more members. In January, the IRS announced the 2015 monthly national average premium for qualified health plans that have a bronze level of coverage for taxpayers to use in determining their maximum individual shared responsibility payment. The monthly national average premium for qualified health plans that have a bronze level of coverage and are offered through ACA Marketplaces in 2015 is $207 per individual but $1,035 per month for a family with five or more members. Exemptions The ACA exempts certain individuals from the shared re-
sponsibility requirement. Some exemptions may be claimed when an individual files a return. Others are only available through the ACA Marketplace; and others may be claimed either way. The IRS anticipates that many individuals will seek an exemption based on a hardship. Among the circumstances that may qualify for a hardship exemption are (not an exhaustive list): • The taxpayer was evicted in the past six months or was facing eviction or foreclosure • The taxpayer recently experienced the death of a close family member • The taxpayer experienced a fire, flood, or other natural or human-caused disaster that caused substantial damage to his or her property • The taxpayer filed for bankruptcy protection in the last six months In most cases, individuals will seek a hardship exemption through the ACA Marketplace. If granted, the Marketplace will issue a certificate to the individual, who will enter that number on his or her Form 8695, Health Coverage Exemption. Along with hardship, a number of other exemptions are available. They include exemptions based on short coverage gap, incarceration, income below filing threshold, and more. Self-reporting Individuals who had mini-

year’s session. “This is yet another call to action for both short-term and longterm solutions to help our local waterways,” Murphy said. Last year, the National Estuary Program funded 28 estuaries nationwide with each getting about $538,000, totaling 60 percent of the total fund. The rest of the money covered administrative costs. The new bill would allocate $27 million to all 28 estuaries each year from 2014 through 2018, requiring 80 percent to be split among the estuaries, and 5 percent would go toward administration. The remaining 15 percent would be distributed based on need, with estuaries having the most problems with obstacles such as extensive seagrass habitat losses, recurring harmful algae blooms,
mum essential coverage in 2014 will self-report on their return. Individuals will “check a box” to declare they carried minimum essential coverage. The check box is located on Line 61 on Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, Line 38 on Form 1040A, and Line 11 on Form 1040-EZ. Employer reporting Code Section 6056 requires applicable large employers (an employer that employed an average of at least 50 full-time employees on business days during the preceding calendar year) to file information returns with the IRS and provide statements to full-time employees about health insurance coverage. Code Section 6055 imposes a similar requirement on health insurance issuers, plan sponsors of self-insured group coverage, and others. The IRS has issued draft forms for Code Section 6055 and 6056 reporting and is expected to complete the forms, and instructions, in 2015. The new reporting requirements were optional for 2014. They are mandatory for 2015. An applicable large employer must file information returns with the IRS and furnish statements to employees beginning in 2016 to report information about its offers of health coverage to its full-time employees for calendar year 2015. Michael Repoli is a certified public accountant in St. Lucie County.
unusual marine mammal mortalities and invasive exotic species. That would leave about $770,000 for the Indian River Lagoon. There will be other funds available and given out on a caseby-case basis, as needed. “Many of the nation’s estuaries are experiencing urgent and challenging ecological problems, including our own Indian River Lagoon,” Posey said. “Our bill simply requires that the EPA refocus existing funding to make sure that the money designated by Congress for estuaries is actually spent to address estuary needs.” Governor Rick Scott also had the Everglades in his sights. On Feb. 4, he called for $5 billion over 20 years to be paid to fund the Everglades restoration, beginning with $150 million starting this year, according to a press release. He didn’t say where the funding would come from, though.

to congratulate me. She confessed that she, too, was nominated in the same category as myself and said if it wasn’t for that she would support me 100 percent but since she was ‘older’ she wanted it and would be certain I would earn it another time. When I processed all this, I told her I should just concede to save myself the embarrassment of losing this award. We both laughed and each time we saw each other at holiday art events we would continue the same banter from where we last left off. Jane would tell her friends that we were both nominated in the same category, but that she would win it this year and me on another year all while draped on me the same way her bright colored apparel and clunky jewelry draped over her. This went on several times over the months between the nominations and the awards, each time funnier than the last. Jane — for those who don’t know — had a penchant for being the loudest one in the room ... visually. She didn’t always have her art on a canvas. She often made her body a canvas through her clothes and oversized jewelry. The evening of the awards night came. Jane was dressed in a black floor-length dress covering her calf length black stiletto boots and the biggest silver and black necklace worn, that when not being worn, could double as a door stop for a Fort Knox vault. A little out of character I thought in the back of my head. Our category came up and Jane was announced the winner. I was thrilled for her and fired off a few photos. Jane made her very gracious acceptance speech and yanked a red feather boa that she had stashed in a boot for a splash of color in case she took the stage. As she got to the stairs to depart the stage, she ran back to the microphone and said while look-

JANE from page A2 ditionally, a skilled writer, she published more than 125 articles about the local arts scene in area newspapers and magazines. Betty Brain, president of the Palm City Art Associates, said that losing Jane has hit the local arts community hard. “The art world lost a bright, shining star,” she said. Jane also found time to volunteer for Helping People Succeed, Hospice of the Treasure Coast, and others. In addition to her husband, Jane is survived by sisters-in law, Lesley Guberman, Laurie Guberman and Erica Marten-
ing right at me on the far side of the room, “The next one is yours Mitch, I know it.” I went back to my seat knowing that my only role for the rest of the evening was to photograph the other recipients and started looking through the images on the back of my camera to see which was the best one that I may use in this newspaper. All I heard was the second syllable of my last name, “...fain” over the speakers from mARTies host, Bryan Garner. To my very genuine surprise, I was called up as a mARTies recipient in the ‘Outstanding Media Artist’ category. It never occurred to me to check the breakdown of categories. From the stage I saw Jane shrug her shoulders at me as we both came to realize we were not in the same category after all. Months of opposing banter for an ‘oops’ moment that we laughed about for the entire year of our mutual mARTies reign. I found out of Jane’s death through a mutual friend. I can’t explain the shock because to me, it was sudden. As much as I love the other flamboyant artists in our community I don’t see one filling in all the gaps that Jane has left behind that we have all become accustomed to and to me that’s a good thing. Jane left a huge, vivid imprint on the arts community and I hope we can celebrate her together with a public collection of her work one day.

Osceola St., Stuart, FL 34994, or any charity. The Palm City Art Associates is creating an arts scholarship to honor Jane. Galen said it was fitting that Jane will continue helping aspiring arts students. “Everybody whose life she touched was transformed,” he said. “She was a vibrant, vivacious, flamboyant person who touched everybody.”

Is there anything ‘pneu’ about pneumonia vaccinations?
THE MARTIN COUNTY
Republican Executive Committee
With Special Guest Speaker
FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS
TREASURE COAST — Actually, there is something new. There are two different commercial vaccines available, pneumovax and prevnar. The CDC used to recommend one or the other but now want everyone to have both. Prevnar was approved in 2011 by the FDA for adults 50 and older — prior to that, it was routinely given to infants and toddlers. Pneumovax prevents serious blood, brain, and lung infections caused by the Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. These infections include pneumonia, meningitis and septicemia. Many strains of Streptococcus pneumonia are resistant to antibiotics. In the U.S., more people die from pneumococcal disease each year than all other vaccine-preventable diseases combined. The best prevention is by vaccination, using a combination of the two vaccines mentioned above. Pneumococcal vaccination should be considered by many. Here are just a few: • Those who are 65 years of age and older • Those over two years of age with chronic heart or lung disorders, diabetes, chronic liver disease, alcoholism, chronic bronchitis, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) or emphysema • Those over two years of age with spleen dysfunction (such as sickle cell disease), leukemia,

The CDC says you can still get the vaccines if you have a mild illness, such as a cold or low-grade fever. Like all vaccines, both PPSV23 and PCV13 can have side effects, but the risk of harm or death from either is extremely rare. As with any vaccine, check with your doctor for any reasons you may not be a candidate. In my opinion, 99 percent of my patients would benefit from the injection given the minor

K. Carl Smith, president and founder of the Frederick Douglass Republicans, will explain his program of “Turning Values into Votes” — Outreach Minority Training. Author of the bestselling book “Frederick Douglass Republicans: The Movement to Re-Ignite America’s Passion for Liberty,” Smith will discuss the No. 1 challenge facing the conservative movement and the Republican Party: diversity inclusion. A truth-teller, Smith’s Frederick Douglass Republican message resonates with those who hold liberty in high esteem. It was K. Carl’s FDR
message which inspired Louisiana state Senator Elbert Guillory’s party switch to the Republican Party and conservative movement. Smith is an unyielding defender of the constitution and liberty, inspired by the guiding principles of the Founding Fathers and he holds fast to the oath taken during his service to our country. Smith will be appearing Feb. 25 at 5:30 p.m. at the Twisted Tuna Restaurant, 4290 S.E. Salerno Road, Port Salerno.

PALM CITY — The Peter & Julie Cummings Library wants to look at family albums and put them online. On Saturday, Feb. 28, noon to 2 p.m., it’ll be hosting the county library system’s inaugural Martin County Memory Project event. “We’re inviting members of the community to come in with any documents or photos to archive in a digital library,” Katie Kerns, librarian, said. Kerns said the Martin County Memory Project is aiming to develop a large digital collection of historic Martin County items ranging from family pictures, postcards and letters to newspapers, deeds and other legal documents. “Anything related to Martin County history,” Kerns said. The collection will be ‘Net-accessible for researchers, students and local-history buffs. The library staff will scan the items, and the digital donors will get electronic copies. Of course, they’ll also take home the originals. The library just wants images. Donors can take jump drives to get the electronic copies of their items, or have the digital images emailed. Donors are asked to take 10 to 20 items each. Karns said the collection will be uploaded depending on how many items come in and how much time staff has to work on it. “Hopefully we can get some volunteers to help us out,’ Kerns said. The project is in cooperation with the University of South Flor-

Staff photo by Patrick McCallister Sheriff William Snyder talks about the recent fire Kevin Hubbard ignited at 3395 S.W. Sunset Trace Circle, Palm City. The Sheriff’s Office accuse Hubbard of starting the fire when he was making butane hash oil, a potent marijuana derivative that seems to be gaining popularity. In October of 2013 a meth lab at an apartment complex on S.W. Sunset Trace Circle, Palm City, exploded. Snyder said the incidents are coincidental. Hubbard lived in Palm City for four days before the recent fire. Lt. John Budensiek, right, and Detective Peter Croft, left, joined Snyder at the press conference.

PALM CITY — Getting in trouble with the law wasn’t on Kevin Patrick Hubbard’s to-do list on Wednesday, Feb. 4. But “Make BHO” was at the top of the list. “BHO” is butane hash oil, a derivative of marijuana. The 27-year-old also intended to get around to paying the New York Times, getting some exercise, setting up his closet and cleaning the oven. Hubbard certainly didn’t intend to start a flash fire a relative’s townhome on Southwest Sunset Trace Circle while making BHO, but he did. “Right after 6:30 (p.m.) yesterday, a neighbor of Mr. Hubbard called and said there was a fire and a bang,” Sheriff William Snyder said at a press conference on Thursday, Feb. 5. When deputies arrived with firefighters, a badly burned Hubbard was trying to cover up his apparent crime instead of getting to safety. As deputies assisted firefighters, they saw Hubbard’s butane hash oil lab. “We backed out of the house and got a search warrant,” Snyder said. At press time, Snyder said the Sher-

disease in history, not just in the U.S.A. but worldwide. One third of all Americans are diabetic or pre-diabetic. Today, even children are being diagnosed with type II diabetes, a phenomenon that was rare even 20 years ago. A fortunate 16% can be helped with diet and exercise. However, 84% have complications. High blood pressure, high cholesterol and high triglycerides usually accompany high blood glucose. Typically pharmaceutical drugs are prescribed and usually more and more of them are added over time. The combination of these artificial chemicals manipulates your diabetic symptoms to create a “rigged illusion” of balance and better health and, of course, these drugs are fraught with side effects that can make you feel even sicker. Despite the $174 Billion spent each year in the U.S.A. creating the modern pharmacy, diabetics, even after taking the latest and greatest drugs, have a greatly elevated risk of: Blindness, Kidney Failure, Lower Limb Amputations, Heart Disease, Stroke and Premature Death.
GOOD NEWS
Most Diabetes is preventable and reversible. The question must be asked “What led to diabetes in the first place?” To counter and reverse Diabetes we must move away from treating the symptoms and address the root cause of the problem. This approach is called functional medicine or functional wellness.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS
Our environment has an enormous impact on our health. Environmental factors can be classified as affecting our 1.mental, 2.physical and 3.chemical balance through a process called epi-genetics. Epigenetics relates to the control of genetic expression that is unassociated with DNA. In other words there are outside factors that can influence your DNA to express a healthy response or a sick response from your genes. The effects of these outside factors can be tested using specific bio-markers. Every biological system has its own specific biomarkers. We can now Identify abnormalities in our three key areas and base a corrective treatment plan on those findings. So in essence, by specifically identifying chemical problems, environmental toxins, vitamin and mineral

deficiencies, environmental burdens and overloads, food allergies and intolerances and infections, we can implement a treatment program based on that core data, rather than symptoms, and realize success in reversing diabetes and restoring good health. Functional Wellness systems not only aid in the detection and treatment of established disease, but can identify pre-clinical disease entities before they become a symptomatic crisis (in other words extremely early detection). Functional Wellness systems will provide you with the knowledge, the tools and the ability to take control of your health for a higher quality of living without the toxic side effects of pharmaceutical drugs or the irreversible effects of radical surgeries. THERE IS HOPE! Imagine living into your 80’s, 90’s, and even longer with health and vitality! We invite you to learn more about the Functional Wellness approach to restoring good health. Call us at 772 781 9987 and sign up for a consultation or for one of our Functional Wellness Workshops. They are FREE ... and just may be the answer you’ve been searching for!!

You’ve just not been feeling well; fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, poor sleep. You go to the doctor and he orders some tests. Your blood test reveals high blood glucose.

By building trust through a family atmosphere, and by using mentors and volunteers, the program incorporates behavioral change with skill-building in trades such as auto repair, plumbing, textile and graphic design, carpentry and boat building. The program takes that instruction a step further by connecting the teens with other individuals and families in the community who need help or services, and helping the youth “pay it forward” in terms of volunteer service. The program works wonders in terms of assisting at-risk youth become productive members of a larger “family” and “giving back” to the community. Statistics show that fully 85 percent of the program’s participants remain sober and “clean,” going on to become stable and contributing adult members of society. The Sade Group at Morgan Stanley is the Presenting Sponsor for the event. Various levels of sponsorships are still available to assist with underwriting the event.

BHO from page A16 iff’s Office hadn’t charged Hubbard with any crime. It was giving him time to get over the initial shock of his injuries. Nevertheless, the Sheriff’s Office, along with federal drug cops, found 582 grams, about 20.5 ounces, of marijuana in the house, along with lots of butane and other products used for making hash oil. Cops intend to charge him for that, along with arson. Any time one starts a fire during the commission of a felony, it’s considered arson. Hubbard told firefighters he was making crème brulee’ and it exploded. In October of 2013 a meth lab at an apartment complex on Southwest. Sunset Trace Circle exploded. Additionally, there was a recent hash-oil lab fire in Stuart. Snyder said all the incidents are coincidental. Nevertheless, two hash-oil lab fires in less than two months gives him pause, because it bodes ill. “(Law enforcement) only see the tip of an iceberg,” he said. In other words, Snyder said there’s certainly lots more hash oil making going on in Martin County. “We follow social media,” he said. “We watch YouTube. It’s clear this is a national phenomenon.” This isn’t the pot Baby Boomers and Gen Xers smoked back in the day, Detective Peter Croft said at the press conference. BHO has ex-
Photo courtesy of the Martin County Sheriff’s Office Along with emailing the homeowner’s association and setting up a closet, Kevin Patrick Hubbard’s to-do list for Wednesday, Feb. 4, included “Make BHO,” butane hash oil, a powerful marijuana derivative. Hubbard’s drug making caused a flash fire at the relative’s home where he lived for less than a week. tremely high concentrations of the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, THC, tetrahydrocannabinol. “It’s much more potent than regular marijuana,” he said. Making BHO is relatively simple and its use is less detectable by pot’s biggest giveaway — scent.
The sheriff said that users sometimes put the oil in room vaporizers, similarly to the way someone else might use sandalwood oil. Only, the sandalwood lacks the intoxicating effects. “(Youths) can smoke it in the house with Mom and Dad not even knowing it,” Snyder said. Additionally, Snyder said that there’s a growing supply throughout the nation of quality marijuana for making hash oil coming from states that have decriminalized its medical or recreational use. “To me, this is a witch’s brew telling me we’ve got a coming problem with this,” Snyder said. Marijuana is still a Schedule 1 controlled substance under federal law, even in states that have decriminalized it for medical or recreational uses. In an interview after the press conference, Snyder said Palm City isn’t a particularly attractive area for manufacturing drugs, despite many of its neighborhoods offering relative seclusion, and its proximity to the Ronald Reagan Turnpike and Interstate 95. He said making hash oil produces the familiar pot-burning scent and residents should call the Sheriff’s Office when they smell it. Hubbard lived in Palm City less than a week before the fire. Snyder said he was apparently alone in his drug-making enterprise.

PALM CITY – Piper’s Landing Garden Club is proud to announce fourth-grader Mallory Schweitzer as the winner of its first annual Sponsorship to Wekiva Youth Camp. Started just over a year ago, the 33 garden club members recently decided to share their love of nature by sponsoring a local elementary school student; allowing her to enjoy a summer camp experience at Wekiva Youth Camp in Apopka. Wekiva is a sleep-away nature camp, located within Wekiva Springs State Park in Central Florida, designed to instill a love and respect for Florida’s natural environment through education, conservation and preservation. The Florida Federation of Garden Clubs, of which Piper’s Landing Garden Club is a member, sponsors Wekiva, making it the camp of choice for garden club sponsorships statewide. Elaine Matts, on behalf of Piper’s Landing Garden Club, coordinated the sponsorship with Palm
City Elementary School faculty, to evaluate and select a student who would most benefit from Wekiva Youth Camp. The winner, fourthgrade student Mallory Schweitzer, was chosen through an essay contest. Students were asked to submit an essay detailing why they wanted to attend Wekiva Camp. Mallory turned in her application essay within two days and was selected as the recipient for the one-week summer camp sponsorship. Her essay begins with, “I would love to go to Wekiva sleep away camp because I love nature and animals, and also love making new friends.” “Mallory is bright, curious and one of the best students in her science class. Her teachers are confident she will gain a lot from the summer camp experience and be able to apply that knowledge to conservation practices here in Martin County in the future,” said Piper’s Landing Garden Club president Michelle Maguire. “We were delighted to work with the staff at Palm City Elementary to

Talented singer has busy schedule STAFF WRITER
skoppel@YourVoiceWeekly.com
MARTIN COUNTY — Countertenor Terry Barber of Stuart is one of the busiest performers around. A past member of the Grammy-winning ensemble Chanticleer, Barber has performed at the Metropolitan Opera House, Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center. He is also the founder of Artists for a Cause, an organization of performing and visual artists who receive support in order to use their art and talent to improve our community. Local audiences will have two opportunities in February to hear Barber. On Feb. 18, he will perform “Classical for Everyone” at the Kane Center in Stuart. On Feb. 27, he will present the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber at St. Bernadette Church in St. Lucie West as part of the St. Bernadette Concert series. Barber said that the two programs are completely different. “I’ve toured with ‘Classical for Everyone’ 50-60 times around the United States,” he said. “This is the first time at the Kane. I have an incredible concert pianist, Alina Kiryayeva, who’s a Juilliard graduate. She’s so gifted and it’s
fun to make music with her. I tell audiences she’s not just an accompanist, but a collaborative pianist. I get ideas from her.” The program will include songs like “Bring Them Home,” from Les Miserables,” “Ave Maria,” a medley from “West Side Story and David Foster’s “The Prayer.” “There will also be famous classical melodies everybody knows,” Barber said. “I tease the audience that they either know a piece from ‘Rigoletto’ or a pizza commercial. People don’t always know why they know a piece. I’ve tried to pick music people have a relationship with and are already connected to it and something they’ve never heard, but you don’t have to know it to love it.” For Barber, the fun is interacting with his audience. “I love my audience,” he said. “I love people. I’d much rather interact and have a dialogue. It’s more fun for them and for me.” For the Andrew Lloyd Webber show at St. Bernadette, Barber will be joined by soprano Shelley Keelor, cellist Jackie Robbins, boy soprano Erich Schuett, and young soprano Savannah Webber. Tom Bold, founder of the concert series at St. Bernadette

Young singer sets sights on operatic career
Alina Kiryayeva accompanies Terry Barber and Sydney Carbo, of Palm City, during a duet performed at ‘An Evening with Terry Barber’ at the Lyric Theatre inn 2013.
Shelley Koppel STAFF WRITER
skoppel@YourVoiceWeekly.com
PALM CITY — Sydney Carbo gave her first vocal performance at her first Holy Communion. The Palm City teen began singing when she joined the after-school chorus in elementary school. The teacher saw something in the youngster’s voice and began giving her private lessons. Now the home-schooled high school senior is applying to college, planning to major in vocal performance. Her goal is a career as an opera singer. Carbo has been studying voice for eight years with Craig Wich, who also teaches part-time at the Boston Conservatory. “He has been a huge, influential part of my life,” she said. “He’s a second dad, sometimes. He’s amazing.”

CARBO from page B3 Carbo performed in musical theater and that was the direction her own dreams went. Wich gave her a different perspective. “I realized I wanted to do this for a very long time,” she said, “He began pushing me to the classical side because I could do that, I said, ‘You’re right. How many kids want to be an opera singer? I want to do that.’” Carbo’s family consists of parents Judy and Dave and three younger sisters. She hopes to attend Palm Beach Atlantic University and major in vocal performance. Her decision to stay close to home for her undergraduate degree is part of a long-term plan. “I’m in for the long haul,” she said. “I want to get a graduate degree. I want to go up north for a graduate degree. I wanted to go to Juilliard for the longest time, but at a lot of big music schools, it’s hard to get noticed as a young freshman. You’re shoved under the rug.” With Wich’s help, Carbo decided that a smaller school would enable her to develop relationships with professors and have a chance to shine. The busy young performer
also takes piano lessons with Debra Boykin and recently found time to compete in a Crossfit competition in Miami. She is also part of the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches. “It’s an amazing community choir in West Palm Beach that practices at the Kravis Center,” she said. “A few friends knew about it and told me to check it out. I auditioned and got in. It’s been amazing ever since. I got to go to the American Choral Directors Conference and sing in the honor choir.” Again, someone took note of her talent. Shawn Berry, the director of the Young Singers, nominated her for Watch a Rising Star, a vocal competition run by Junior Achievement. Carbo is among the finalists who will compete for scholarship money. Carbo would not reveal her program for the finals, except to say that there would be a show tune and an operatic piece, reflecting the requirement for works in contrasting styles. She hopes to hear from college in the next few months and looks forward to the challenges ahead. As she said, she’s in it for the long haul.

BARBER from page B1 will conduct works from 10 shows including “Jesus Christ Superstar,” “Evita,” Cats,” “Phantom of the Opera,” “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” “Aspects of Love,” “Song and Dance, Requiem,” “Sunset Boulevard,” and “Starlight Express.” This program is on a 10-city tour of Florida and will also be presented at the Lyric Theatre and the Eissey Campus Theatre in Palm Beach Gardens. It’s all part of schedule that keeps
Barber busy and on the move. He recently performed in an outreach program in Ontario, giving six performances in front of 4,000 youngsters. It’s part of his mission to improve arts education and show how essential it is to brain and emotional development. “The arts have a unique ability to elicit emotion,” he said. “The highest art is to elicit emotion and (neural) pathways are strengthened by emotion.” As far as Barber is concerned, the more performances he does, the better. “We’re crazy busy and I love it,”
