Earlier this winter, our Teaching Fellows participated in a conducting workshop with Dr. Jacob Sustaita, assistant conductor for Pacific Symphony and conducting faculty at USC Thornton School of Music. Working with a live orchestra of musicians, our undergraduate fellows learned how to communicate ideas from the podium and run an effective rehearsal. We are so grateful to the Snap Foundation as well as the Hennings-Fischer Foundation for providing support for our Teaching Fellowship!

Our Tasting Notes gala was a big success - we are still calculating totals but raised over $55,000 in support of our music education programs! We are so grateful to the amazing vendors who came to offer tastings, our delightful emcee Rich Capparela and the fantastic Liela Avila Band who kept us entertained all night long, our Gala Committee who worked so hard to put the entire evening together, and our volunteers who made it all possible. A very special thank you to California State Senator Ben Allen for attending the event and speaking in support of our programs, and to all the guests who joined us to honor The Maestro Foundation and celebrate 20 years of Elemental Music's dedication to community music education!
