profiles Negaunee Music Institute at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Across Chicago and around the world, the Negaunee Music Institute connects people to the extraordinary musical resources of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Programming educates audiences, trains young musicians, and serves diverse communities, with the goal of transforming lives through active participation in music.

Current Negaunee Music Institute programs include CSO School and Family Concerts; open rehearsals; in-depth school and community partnerships; the Civic Orchestra of Chicago; intensive training and performance opportunities for young musicians including the Percussion Scholarship Program, Chicago Youth in Music Festival, and Crain-Maling Foundation CSO Young Artists Competition; and education and community engagement activities during CSO domestic and international tours. Worldwide, the Negaunee Music Institute’s annual reach is approximately 200,000 through all channels, including radio broadcasts, teacher’s guides, and online resources.

Under his visionary leadership of the CSO’s tenth music director Riccardo Muti, the Negaunee Music Institute has deepened the Orchestra’s engagement with communities across the city and abroad while nurturing a new generation of musicians and music lovers. cso.org/institute

Percussion Scholarship Program The Percussion Scholarship Program (PSP) offers intensive, weekly percussion instruction on a full scholarship basis to Chicago youth in grades 3–12. Students are selected for the program through a competitive application process that includes a provisional period followed by an invitation to participate through eighth grade.

Select students are invited to continue through high school. The program meets weekly on Saturdays year-round, and provides each student with instruments, lesson books, and materials at no cost. PSP members also perform as an ensemble twice per year in Buntrock Hall at Symphony Center in addition to giving special concerts throughout each season. PSP boasts a roster of alumni who have gone on to some of the nation’s finest colleges, universities, and conservatories, later assuming notable careers within and outside of music.

Chicago Musical Pathways Initiative The Chicago Musical Pathways Initiative is a program housed at Merit School of Music and co-led by a consortium of Chicago area musical organizations. Its mission is to identify and develop gifted and motivated orchestral students from underrepresented backgrounds for acceptance into top-tier conservatory, college, or university classical music programs in preparation for careers as professional musicians. Musicians selected for CMPI are carefully assessed and provided with comprehensive supports—musical and extra-musical (e.g., financial, instructional, academic, etc.) to remove many of the barriers to access that can discourage or derail the training of talented young musicians from underrepresented backgrounds before they are able to realize their full musical potential. chicagopathways.org

Civic Orchestra of Chicago Since 1919, the Civic Orchestra of Chicago has been one of the nation’s premier orchestral training programs for emerging professionals.

Benefiting from a unique alliance with the world-renowned Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Civic members refine their skills under the guidance of musicians of the CSO, Zell Music Director Riccardo Muti, and Principal Conductor Ken-David Masur, as well as numerous guest artists who visit Symphony Center each season.

The Civic Orchestra is a signature program of the Negaunee Music Institute at the CSO. The Negaunee Music Institute shares the extraordinary musical resources of the CSO, creating connections to music for individuals and communities in Chicago and across the world.

Notes for Peace Launched in March 2017, the Notes for Peace project empowers parents who have lost children to gun violence to create original songs of tribute. With guidance from the Civic Fellows, guest teaching artists from the U.K.-based Irene Taylor Trust, and professional vocalists, parents compose, perform live, and professionally record their music, which is then featured alongside family photos and lyrics on notesforpeace.org.

To date, over sixty families have written songs to honor lives lost to gun violence.

Chicago Symphony Orchestra Founded in 1891, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is consistently hailed as one of the world’s leading orchestras, and in September 2010, renowned Italian conductor Riccardo Muti became its tenth music director. During his tenure, the Orchestra has deepened its engagement with the Chicago community, nurtured its legacy while supporting a new generation of musicians and composers, and collaborated with visionary artists. The musicians of the CSO

command a vast repertoire and annually perform more than 150 concerts, most at Symphony Center in Chicago, and, since 1936, in the summer at the Ravinia Festival. Since its first tour to Canada in 1892, the Orchestra has performed in twenty-nine countries on five continents during sixty-two international tours.

Since 1916, recording has been a significant part of the Orchestra’s activities. Current releases on CSO Resound, the Orchestra’s independent recording label, include the Grammy Award–winning release of Verdi’s Requiem led

by Riccardo Muti. Recordings by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus have earned sixty-three Grammy awards from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.

Listeners around the world can hear the CSO in weekly airings of the CSO Radio Broadcast Series, which is syndicated on the WFMT Radio Network and online at CSO.org/Radio.

Crain-Maling Foundation CSO Young Artists Competition The Crain-Maling Foundation CSO Young Artists Competition is a prestigious concerto competition for Illinois’ top young soloists.

Applicants audition live at Symphony Center for a distinguished panel of judges. Following a preliminary round, four finalists are selected to perform in the final round in Orchestra Hall, accompanied by the Civic Orchestra of Chicago. The winner is featured on the following season as soloist with members of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra as part of CSO School and Family Concerts.

The Crain-Maling Foundation CSO Young Artits Competition is presented jointly by the League of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Association and the Negaunee Music Institute at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
