Keys 2 Success

Description

• For legions of disadvantaged children in Newark, New Jersey, the effects of poverty are not confined to material want. They lack access to the broader cultural inheritance and robust network enjoyed by children in more privileged communities. In particular, they lack exposure to classical music training, which serves as an effective vehicle to develop self-discipline, confidence, critical social skills, and to create a robust social network required to thrive in the wider professional world. This program seeks to enrich the lives of such children and to give them hope through music education. Long-term, it seeks to improve individual lives and the communities in which those lives are lived. The means to that end will be intense, individualized training in the piano, coupled with percussion work to strengthen rhythmic skills and ensemble work to enhance collaborative ability and peer learning skills. The goal of the program is not necessarily to produce world-class musicians, though that may well happen. Rather, the goal is to use music education as a means to personal betterment for children who might otherwise lead lives of not only material but also cultural deprivation. The founder of the program, who will serve as program director and principal instructor, is Jee-Hoon Krska. Ms. Krska is a concert pianist who has performed with the Boston Pops at Boston Symphony Hall, as a soloist in the Trinity Church performance series in New York, New York, and with Yo-Yo Ma.
