Reaching Our Neighborhoods
Random Acts of Music (RAM)
"Unless you've experienced a sense of the isolation that is an inevitable part of deafness, you can't imagine how important it is to know that Mill Neck Manor School for the Deaf is a priority audience of the Long Island Philharmonic."
- Mark R. Prowatzke, Ph.D., Executive Director,
Mill Neck Manor School for the Deaf
YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN OR WHERE YOU'LL ENCOUNTER A RANDOM ACT OF MUSIC
RAM is a collaborative effort between the Philharmonic and community-based organizations whose constituents are among our priority audience. RAM will bring classical music into the lives of thousands of people by engaging audiences in new and unique ways through a highly interactive and personal approach. Philharmonic musicians, from small ensembles up to a chamber orchestra, will bring music to life in hospitals, hospices, children's hospitals, libraries, community and senior centers, museums, schools, malls, corporate centers, and community-based organizations, building cultural bridges where words cannot. RAM enables us to touch the lives of every member of our community - not just those who attend subscription concerts
HeartStrings
Each season, the Philharmonic, working with community-based organizations, makes more than 2,000 tickets available to those who might not otherwise attend a concert for economic, social, cultural, or health reasons. Local businesses, by underwriting the cost of these tickets, enable HeartStrings to open the concert doors to under-served members of our community, HeartStrings, an accessible and affordable program, creates opportunities for those in our community who might not otherwise have a chance to experience the magic of a live symphony orchestra playing great music. The Philharmonic believes that everyone benefits from the experience, which contributes significantly in our community's efforts to improve health and quality of life. |
