Commemorative News: Encore Music Academy is Expanding!


Encore Music Academy is Expanding

ENCORE MUSIC ACADEMY IS EXPANDING 


February 13, 2019

Dear Valued Encore Families and Friends:

On this, the seventh anniversary of the day we opened our doors for the very first time, we are beyond excited to announce that a new era has arrived at Encore! A long time in the planning, the acquisition of the entire upper floor of our 3 Bent Street facility in Franklin is complete.

As of Wednesday, May 1, 2019, Encore will occupy the entire building, relocating all Encore operations, lessons, classes, and ensembles to Franklin on a permanent basis! With over 7,000 square feet of operational space at our disposal, this acquisition increases Encore's footprint, allowing us to offer more lessons and classes on a daily basis, with room to grow. We are thrilled that our entire faculty and staff will, at last, be under one roof, allowing for a more streamlined customer service experience for you, our Encore family.

If you currently take lessons or classes at our Millis facility, as of May 1, your lessons and classes will take place in Franklin, just a four-minute ride (2 miles) from the Millis location. We have included a diagram here for your reference.
Encore Music Academy is Expanding
Encore Music Academy is Expanding
The Millis location will officially close as of April 30, although we may cease lessons and classes there on April 26 in order to facilitate the move. We will attempt to make this transition as seamless as possible; however, as we sort out spaces and schedules, we ask for your patience, flexibility, and cooperation. We expect there will be a settling-in period as we organize rooms and schedules, but will do our very best to create a comfortable experience for everyone at Encore. And here's the good news: We've done a full analysis and can confirm that 100% of ALL lessons and classes will retain the same day and time slots!

If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to either Lisa or Pat. As always, we thank you for, and very much appreciate, your support.

With warmest regards,

Lisa Ostrow and Patrick Dreier
Co-Owners, Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios

Two Encore Students Awarded National Gold Medals In Music; Eight Students Headed To Carnegie Hall

Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios, in Franklin, MA, is pleased provide two significant announcements regarding student achievements.

Claire Bauer, age 15 of Franklin, and Maura Johnston, age 16 of Norfolk, are both students of voice at Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios. Each young woman has recently been awarded the National Gold Medal of Excellence for 2018 by the Royal Conservatory of Music: Bauer for Level 6 Voice, and Johnston for Level 2 Voice. 

The Royal Conservatory of Music awards the National Gold Medal of Excellence to the student who has achieved the highest score in the country within their specific skill level for each instrument during the academic year. For the assessments, students are scored on proficiency in the following areas: performance; technical requirements; aural skills; rhythm; and sight-reading ability.

Johnston, who has been studying voice for three years and piano for one year under the expert guidance of piano and vocal instructor, Rebecca Abalutzk, also performs and records albums with the recording ensemble, The Encore EnHarmonix. Abalutzk said, "I am both extremely proud and fortunate to work with such a driven young woman. She is the type of student who reminds me why I became a teacher in the first place".

Claire Bauer, under the guidance of her vocal instructor, Lisa Ostrow, (who has guided students to National Gold medals three times previously), began her studies in voice using the curriculum of the RCM right from the start. Upon hearing of her award, Bauer mused, 
"Well, I think getting this award has a lot to do with the person who drives me everywhere," and then she gave her mom the biggest smile ever. Ostrow said, "Students like Claire are every teacher's dream. They challenge us to be the very best that we can be, so that they can reach their full potential."

Two Encore Students Awarded National Gold Medals in Music

Claire Bauer, age 15 of Franklin, and Maura Johnston, age 16 of Norfolk, are both students of voice at Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios. Each young woman has recently been awarded the National Gold Medal of Excellence for 2018 by the Royal Conservatory of Music: Bauer for Level 6 Voice, and Johnston for Level 2 Voice. The Royal Conservatory of Music awards the National Gold Medal of Excellence to the student who has achieved the highest score in the country within their specific skill level for each instrument. For the assessments, students are graded on proficiency in the following areas: Performance; technical requirements; aural skills; rhythm; and, sight-reading ability.

Johnston, who has been studying voice for three years and piano for one year under the expert guidance of Rebecca Abalutzk, also performs and records albums with the recording ensemble, The Encore EnHarmonix.

A number of students from Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios, located in Franklin and Millis, participate in the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) assessment sessions each year. The RCM assessment process represents an extremely exciting opportunity for students, on a national level, to demonstrate the skills that they have honed through practice. Locally, assessments are held at Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios, which is a Founding School and a regional assessment center for this internationally-acclaimed program. Student participants come from all around the New England area to take the assessments, while adjudicators travel from all across Canada in order to administer the exams. Not only do the adjudicators judge students based on ability to perform on the instrument of their choice within their skill level, but they also administer academic assessments in music theory, harmony, history, and analysis.

The Royal Conservatory of Music provides a recognized national standard of success in music study from beginner to advanced levels. It inspires excellence through individual student assessments that are central to the Program, while also supporting teachers with high-quality and innovative resources. The RCM allows students to measure and celebrate accomplishment and track their progress throughout the country. All students and teachers across the United States are invited to participate, and Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios is proud to be able to offer these opportunities at the school and through outreach to the surrounding communities.

Ostrow, Vocal Director and co-owner of Encore Music Academy and Recording Studios, had this to say:

"The accomplishments of both of these young women is simply extraordinary. Having scored higher than any other student in the country on their respective vocal assessments, a National Gold Medal is a true testament to the dedication each brings to her music studies, the level of support each receives from her family, her innate talent, and her tremendous desire to achieve. And, best of all, Claire and Maura are an absolute joy to work with - fun and funny, talented, and incredibly sweet. We are very proud of both of them, as we are of all our students."
An added bonus to this remarkable achievement is that both Johnston and Bauer will be heading to Carnegie Hall in February to perform, as a result of having each won her National Gold Medal.
