Notes from Lenny

January 5th, 2012 by Apple Hill

Greetings everyone, A few weeks ago I was in the desert of Jordan with the Apple Hill String Quartet and summer participant Reem, after teaching, concertizing, and connecting with Apple Hill alumni and friends on our Middle East tour. It was the end of our trip, and we all decided to take some time and have an adventure … we spent the night in a Bedouin camp and early the next morning, with the help of a Bedouin guide, we rode in the back of a jeep around the Wadi Rum desert and watched the sunrise, climbed mountains and dunes, drank sage tea, and then had a simple but terrific Middle Eastern meal back in the Bedouin camp. Now that I am back from our tour, that adventure continues for me in regards to Apple Hill. As an organization, Apple Hill has had a good year. We are approaching the New Year with strength, new ideas, and a set of goals. At the moment, we are about to choose the Playing for Peace scholarship students from the Middle East – a difficult task since we heard so many fine musicians – and I can’t help but think about a conversation I had with Jack Calhoun 2 years ago. Jack was about to become chair of Apple Hill’s board of directors and I was waiting for him to arrive - we were going to sit down and have a chat about the future goals for Apple Hill. Jack walked in the door, sat down, looked me in the eye and said, “The ripple effect, that’s Apple Hill’s future.” I was intrigued by Jack’s rather enigmatic announcement. Once we started to talk though, it became clear to me what he meant. Jack was talking about Apple Hill’s wide-ranging, ripple-like effect throughout the local, national, and international community. He was correct in saying that now was the time to set goals that would strengthen and expand Apple Hill and Playing for Peace. Goals that would grow and expand the idea that the pursuit of musical excellence leads to the development of confidence, creativity, ambition, and social change in the individuals and the communities we serve. Right now I’m thinking about the ripple effect in regards to a young violinist from Palestine who was just accepted to Smith College. She arrived at Apple Hill from Ramallah in the summer of 2008 when she was 14, the recipient of a Playing for Peace scholarship, and about to start high school. She immediately captivated everyone – including Reem (see the first paragraph!), another Playing for Peace scholarship recipient (from Jordan) and the music instructor and soon to be dean of freshman at King’s Academy, an outstanding college preparatory high school in Amman, Jordan where Apple Hill has had a mini-residency since 2008. One thing led to another: Reem invited the young violinist to apply to King’s, she was accepted, she was a strong presence at King’s, and now she will be attending Smith College. Her life changed forever that summer of 2008 and this turn of events would never have happened without her Apple Hill experience as a full Playing for Peace scholarship student. Scholarships and tuition assistance are crucial to the future of many young musicians who attend Apple Hill. Students awarded Playing for Peace scholarships, for example, receive full assistance that covers all travel expenses, tuition for two summer sessions, room, board, and extra fees such as visas, etc. These full scholarships are important for the Playing for Peace program – it ensures that the participants from areas of conflict or misunderstanding will actually arrive here – but any amount given helps Apple Hill’s scholarship and tuition assistance program, in turn ensuring that students from everywhere are able to attend Apple Hill. The violinist from Palestine received support from a donor who believed in the power and simplicity of the Playing for Peace program and they have sponsored her since. After this recent Middle East tour, I see now more than ever what Jack was talking about. Our trip was successful and productive accomplishing all performance, teaching, and administrative goals. Concert events were sold-out, workshops and master classes were fully subscribed, we heard many fine musicians, we visited our many friends and colleagues, and we made many new friends and connections. Those ripples have surely grown wider since Jack’s remark! As you are well aware, in order for the ripples to grow ever wider, financial support and resources are crucial. Apple Hill is fortunate to have received generous support from many individuals, foundations, and organizations since its founding forty years ago. I’d like to see this support continue and include many individuals, like you, in order for us to broaden our reach and survive. This brings me to the reason I’m writing – to make a request, and ask you to read the articles in this e-newsletter, take a look at the photos, listen to our WGBH radio show, and then support Apple Hill with a financial gift.  If you have already given a gift of support, we all thank you, especially those of us who were on the tour and in that desert – the Apple Hill String Quartet, me, and yes, Reem too! If you have not yet given, please do. While the total amount you give is certainly critical for supporting our mission, staff, and programs, it is the number of you who make a gift, no matter how small (or large) that matters most to the vitality and viability of our organization. Back to the trip one last time: There were many highlights – great food, incredible sights, wonderful concerts, meeting musicians and listening to a lot of music, meeting many directors of foundations and organizations – but I had two highlights: One was our concert in the Jordan embassy, the slow movement of the Mozart F Major String Quartet played beautifully by the Apple Hill String Quartet, in the US ambassador’s residence, a space with incredible acoustics, for an appreciative audience rapt in attention … and the other was the magical visit to the Wadi Rum desert at the end of our trip, a time to appreciate our Middle East visit, be awed by nature and the vast space, and a quiet time set aside to be thankful for each other and Apple Hill. How about joining us on this adventure of being awed by the idea of Apple Hill, Playing for Peace, and the simple yet profound act of learning, listening, and playing music together? Your gift will show your belief and thankfulness in the power of music and art to transform lives and change individuals – click the “donate now” button and take that step. Yours, Lenny Matczynski Director, Apple Hill Center for Chamber Music

Summer Magic

December 21st, 2011 by Amelia

At a recent holiday gathering, Apple Hill board member Chip Woodbury pulled out his guitar and sang for us. The song, an original based on a poem, was called “Magic.” As I listened, I thought about Apple Hill and what this organization means to the people in the AH community. We had a very successful summer. There are plenty of statistics to prove it, but Chip’s song was making me think of a different measure of success. Remember the WGBH program about Apple Hill? A reporter came to Nelson one sunny August day and, after collecting recordings of AH performances, he sat on the patio with a group of devoted Apple Hillers and asked: “What is so special about Apple Hill?" He listened to answers about music, friendship, and learning, and finally he selected one clip: “This place,” the student said, “is magic.” When you spend time at the AH campus, you can see signs of success – new buildings, overflowing concerts – but if you look closer, you can see the Apple Hill magic at work: Musicians from Palestine and Texas, Israel and Ireland, Syria and Mexico, Egypt and New Hampshire form enduring friendships when they discover that what they have in common far surpasses their differences. Adults who left their instruments decades earlier to pursue career and family return to music and discover the wonderful world of chamber music open to them. Faculty coaches, after a full day guiding their groups to musical breakthroughs, inspire with a beautiful concert. Every year, someone discovers and falls in love with a new piece, whether it be a chamber music classic or a young composer’s world premier. Late into the next winter, parents email to say they have never seen their child practice so much before. And musicians of all ages find in themselves a musical voice they had never before dreamed of. Of course, not everyone believes in magic. But we can all believe in Apple Hill’s great teaching, great music, and genuine commitment to nurturing the voice of every musician. When you visit Apple Hill next summer, ask someone what they love about this place. Maybe, in their words and their eyes, you’ll see the Apple Hill magic.

Sarah’s Tour Journal: Jordan 2011

December 2nd, 2011 by Sarah

[caption id="attachment_1125" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="The quartet in Karak after an outreach concert"][/caption] After seeing the sunrise on Sunday morning in the desert in Jordan and walking the streets of Paris Monday at dawn on a layover, I woke up in America Tuesday morning having absolutely no idea where I was! While I am so happy to be with family for Thanksgiving, we had an amazing week in Jordan, and I do miss the sights and sounds of being there. Aside from all the music, it seems like a lot of what makes our trips so great is a combination of being excited to see good friends from the summer on their home turf, discovering new places, meeting and hearing new people, and being back in places we've loved visiting. Jordan was a perfect mix of all these things, and I'm reminded of a question asked by the WGBH reporter during the summer about what it's like going on Apple Hill tours - my immediate thought was that on these trips it just feels like a real privilege to be able to do what we do. [caption id="attachment_1133" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="After an outreach concert in Salt"][/caption] I'm not sure if it was because I felt we had maybe one of our best periods of rehearsing and preparing our program during the first month or so of this fall season, but by the time we got to the end of the Mendelssohn quartet at our last concert in Jordan, I felt all five of us had been through quite a journey with this program, and I was pretty sad to be at the end of it all. We were talking once during the trip about quartet playing and in a way, how strange to be doing what we do in this modern age - playing instruments and working for hours at a time polishing pieces of classical music written in some cases hundreds of years ago. Lenny said what we do is a craft, and I was pleased to think of the woodworker we saw in Turkish Nicosia, with all his tools lined up on a big table, carving and shaping his beautiful frames. A teacher at the King's Academy told me that the day after the concert, he used our quartet as a rare example of taking time to do something worthwhile and not taking shortcuts. What's great about quartet playing is that along with all of that time to craft and polish, it feels like we get to invite the people we perform for and the places we perform in to join in on our craft by listening and being a part of the performance. For example, when we played our outreach program for over 200 [caption id="attachment_1126" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Workshop participants from Syria, the National Conservatory in Amman, and King's Academy"][/caption] schoolgirls in Karak, a town in southern Jordan, I kept thinking about the last time we did that program, which was at the Alice Smith school thousands of miles away in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Maybe next time, I'll think of the lovely girl who played the violin for the first time with us in Karak and when the time for questions came, said something like, "Thank you for coming and playing your music for us. We loved it...is Apple Hill on Facebook?" Or maybe I'll think of the charismatic young teacher in the town of Salt who also played on a violin for the first time with us at an outreach concert there. It was also memorable to play our concert at the Zara Expo in Amman when we had already traveled to perform an outreach concert earlier that morning, rehearsed in the afternoon, and gave a master class at the National Conservatory. We might not have been the most charged to be performing that evening, but by the Mendelssohn we ended up really enjoying playing for the full audience there. So by the time we got to that last performance at the King's Academy, not only were we so excited to be playing for workshop participants (including some amazing AH summer participants like Reem Abu Rahmeh, Nouran Meho, Dima Hourani, Ghyas Zeidieh, and Rania Ejeilat), we were carrying withus so many more people, places, and experiences than when we first started working on these pieces. [caption id="attachment_1121" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="With the Ambassador Jones and his wife"][/caption] I spoke with a guest at our performance at the U.S. Ambassador's residence in Amman who had been in Jordan for many years and had known of Apple Hill since the group first started traveling there. Not only has he enjoyed the music, the word that always came to his mind with Apple Hill is generosity, especially evidenced by the number of Jordanian musicians who have been awarded scholarships over the years. I loved that he said that, and I hope that's a word always associated with Apple Hill, not just with Playing for Peace scholarships, but also in the sharing of our craft, whether performing, teaching, giving workshops, or inviting people to join us in the summer.

Sarah’s Tour Journal: Cyprus 2011

November 14th, 2011 by Sarah

Elise, Sarah, Mike, Rupert and Lenny are starting the second week of their Middle East Tour. Sarah writes to us from Cyprus. [caption id="attachment_1114" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Master class for the Nicosia Municipality Orchestra"][/caption] Having experienced a big snowstorm only 2 weeks ago, stepping out into the warm Mediterranean air in Cyprus felt like we had been magically transported to a different world. I can't tell you how much the five of us are enjoying being back in Cyprus this week. We received a hearty George Georgiou welcome at the swanky new Larnaca airport and headed off to Nicosia, the divided capital city of Cyprus. Apple Hill has been traveling to Cyprus for over ten years now, and since it had been a couple years since we've been back, it's been interesting to see what's changed and what has stayed the same. It's also been an amazing time of seeing older participants again, discovering new places, re-connecting with participants from recent summers, and hearing talented younger musicians. [caption id="attachment_1106" align="alignleft" width="300" caption="Lenny at the Buyuk Han"][/caption] Our first rehearsal was at the Arte center, a music school and lovely performance space that we have performed in almost every time I have been in Cyprus. We then headed on foot over to one of the main crossing areas between Greek Cyprus and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus for a bi-communal master class hosted by the American Embassy. The class was held at the Fulbright Center which is located inside the UN buffer zone, and we noticed some interesting changes. For example, there were several new cafes near the buffer zone, including one in the place of an old clothing shop that had been abandoned in the events of 1974 and eerily still had t-shirts hanging in the window from that time.The very next day we gave a short performance and master class on the Turkish side of Nicosia for the Nicosia Municipality Orchestra. We were amazed to see so many former Apple Hill participants, including two violinists who were the very first Turkish Cypriot P4P scholarship recipients. I've heard moving stories of that first group of Cypriots who played a Dvorak string quartet coached by Lenny. At that time, the only place Greek and Turkish Cypriots could meet was in the UN buffer zone, so this quartet actually met to rehearse in the Fulbright Center, where we had just given a class the day before. Later on that day, we gave a class at a music school in Turkish Nicosia which was recently started by another former AH participant. Having heard that the university we usually visit in northern Cyprus had closed its music performance department due to a lack of students, it was really encouraging to see a former participant starting such a good school for young musicians. We were able to do some sightseeing that day in the Turkish part of Nicosia and discovered a new part of northern Cyprus we hadn't seen before. We just loved walking around the old part of the city, which included seeing the beautiful 'Buyuk Han', the remains of an inn built in the mid-1500s. During this trip, I've been struck once again imagining what it must be like living in a divided country, where checkpoints divide land that only one generation ago was united. We frequently walk on a busy promenade on the Greek side of Nicosia called Lledra Street and were surprised to discover ourselves walking on the continuation of that street on the Turkish side while sightseeing. Our concert at the Arte center last Thursday evening was well attended, and it was really wonderful to be able to perform with George Georgiou, our master of ceremonies in Cyprus, and Kyriakos Kyriakou, a pianist who was a Playing for Peace participant two summers ago. [caption id="attachment_1103" align="alignright" width="300" caption="After our workshop at the Limassol School"][/caption] On our last day in Nicosia, we gave a class at the Nicosia music school and heard some wonderful violinists. That evening, our workshop at the Limassol music school (a high school for the arts) began. We worked with six different groups that were a mixture of winds, strings, piano, and guitar from Friday evening until Sunday, culminating in a wonderful participant concert at the school on Sunday afternoon. On Saturday evening, we gave a concert including works by Mozart, Stravinsky, and Mendelssohn at a hall recently renovated from an old factory. The head of one of the music schools we visited spoke briefly about the situation in Cyprus, and one thing he said caught my attention; he said bi-communal activities are ok, but the thing that is really needed is for people in Cyprus, Greek and Turkish, to be able to live together. I've been struck in recent months at how intimate chamber music is, and I feel that my colleagues know me in a way that very few others do. It struck me on this trip that the beauty of Apple Hill is that, in a capsule of time during the summer, people from all over, with all the things that might separate us normally, get to live together and share in this intimate experience of making music together.

BUY Viagra ONLINE WITHOUT PRESCRIPTION, I’ve seen how successfully this has worked when we have our follow-up sessions with Lenny, and I’ve also seen this in the quartet itself.

Thanks to him, to Apple Hill, all of our supporters and friends and ……. thanks to my fellow quartet colleagues Mike, Elise, and Rupert.

Deborah: To be honest, I was not too thrilled when I learned that my mom would be coming to Apple Hill with me. BUY Coreg ONLINE WITHOUT PRESCRIPTION, I was even less amused when I found out that we had been placed in a group together, a circumstance, I later learned, she herself had orchestrated.

It would be painful for me to wax lyrical about how the Apple Hill sessions we have both attended have turned out to be wonderful shared experiences that bring us closer together (after all, my mom will be reading this). It is easier for me to insist that the benefits of my mom’s presence came primarily from the drop-off laundry service and brand-name coffee drinks that she, or I should say her vehicle, provided.

But it was enjoyable, I have to admit, to see my mom nearly defeat Movses Pogossian, Armenian ping-pong master, in a riveting semi-final match. It is also hard to ignore how the violin-cello duets we play at home have progressed from shouting matches to something much more fluid and musical, thanks in part to the superb coaching we have both received at Apple Hill.

So maybe Apple Hill has, in fact, been a wonderful shared experience for us, BUY Coreg ONLINE WITHOUT PRESCRIPTION. I guess I have to concede that.
