Dear Allandale Neighbors,
Please help the McCallum High School Orchestra get to Carnegie Hall in June ’09. On Sunday, November 9th, these talented students will play a one-night-only performance The Neapolitan Music Society presents a Neapolitan Revival with the McCallum High School Chamber Orchestra, under the direction of Ricky Pringle and Guest Conductor, Maestro Gioacchino Longobardi. The Neapolitan School of Music is a fascinating story that began 500 years ago in the orphanages of Naples, and ends in the royal courts of Europe. These schools produced some of the most beautiful music from masters like Scarlatti, Jomelli, Durante and Fiorenza. The concert is the culmination of a week long international master class for the McCallum Chamber Orchestra and will include a lecture by Dr. Robert Gjerdingen of Northwestern University.
