Join Us for An Afternoon of Pure Delight...
Even more than in years past, The Ridgewood Conservatory’s
Eighth Annual Faculty
Recital and Grand Piano Fundraising Event promises to dazzle and delight
concert-goers of all ages.
Our Faculty Recital is the perfect opportunity for our students to hear their
own teachers do what they do best – make beautiful music. It’s a wonderful way
for our youngsters to become excited about the diversity of musical styles, to
marvel at the musicianship of virtuoso solo performances, and to appreciate the
engaging synergy created by varied ensembles.
As always, the concert program will feature a wide
selection of classical and jazz performed by our own faculty, a group of highly
accomplished musicians with outstanding performance credentials that range from
New York’s Broadway musicals, Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall to concerts and
symphonic performances throughout Europe, South America and the Far East.
So far, we have raised $5,000 for our Grand Piano
Fund. All profits from this year's concert will once again go towards
purchasing our first grand piano! And we need
your help.
Bring Your Family and Friends
(and neighbors, and teachers, and co-workers)...
Our goal is to fill the house with music lovers! Tell everyone you know about
the phenomenal talent of our incredible faculty – and how proud you are to be
part of The Ridgewood Conservatory. The profits from the concert will be the
foundation of our Grand Piano Fund.
Contribute to the Cause
(Big bucks would be wonderful, but we'll take pocket change too)...
All donations to our Grand Piano Fund received prior to
March 6th will be listed in our Faculty Recital Program. Donors of the Mezzo
Piano level and above will be included in our special Grand Piano plaque at The
Conservatory.

As a special thank-you for your generosity,

Bake a Cake, Cookies or Cupcakes
(We promise not to tell anyone if you don't really bake it yourself)...
What kind of fundraiser would this be without a Bake Sale? Bring baked goods
for us to sell at intermission, and we’ll put the proceeds into the purchase of
our new piano!
Your Support on March 11th Would Mean Everything To Us...
Since we first opened our doors in 1998, The Ridgewood Conservatory has grown from four
instructors and sixty woodwind students to include a faculty of close to thirty string,
woodwind, brass, percussion, piano, vocal and early childhood music instructors
teaching over 475 students each week. We couldn't have come this far without
your continued support.
Help us make this event the best ever. Buy your tickets in advance or at the door. Bring your entire family and all
your friends. Make a contribution to our Grand Piano Fund. Bring your favorite
baked goods for our Bake Sale. And don’t forget to bring your appetites at
intermission.
However you choose to participate, your support means the world to us. Please
join us on March 11th for our Eighth Annual Faculty Recital and Grand
Piano Fundraising Event.
We promise you an afternoon of pure delight!
