Ars Viva has begun a Community Partners Initiative that makes our concert tickets available to not-for-profit schools, churches & synagogues to sell as fundraisers for their organizations. By partnering with these groups, we help them raise needed funds while gaining new audience members for Ars Viva. If you are interested in participating in this program, please call 847-615-1811.

possible through the
support of Smith Barney
Throughout the school year, in collaboration with Peter Rosheger, New Trier High School Director of Orchestras, Ars Viva musicians will hold sectional rehearsals and master classes at New Trier, Maestro Heatherington will conduct the students in rehearsal, and they will observe Ars Viva rehearsals. The New Trier Chamber Orchestra will learn and perform some of the same music to be performed by Ars Viva, which will further enhance the shared musical experiences.
Please plan to arrive at 3:30 pm on May 6th, 2007, to hear the New Trier High School Orchestra perform on our stage just prior to our concert at 4:00 pm. You will thoroughly enjoy these gifted young musicians. This performance is the culmination of a year-long partnership between Ars Viva and New Trier.
With these multi-faceted interactions, Ars Viva will make music come to life in the lives of these young people!
