Welcome Message
California Music EducatorsAssociation • Central Coast Section
Central Coast Section is an affiliate member of the California Music Educators Association. CMEA is a Federated unit of NAfME: National Association for Music Education.
Purpose
Membership is open to all music educators working in public and private schools, colleges and universities in California. The purposes of the association are: (1) to promote access to a sequential music education for all Pre-K through Grade 12 students taught by fully qualified music educators; (2) to support and improve existing music programs; (3) to promote quality pre-service and in-service music teacher preparation programs; and, (4) to create a greater awareness of the value of music education through partnerships with other associations and advocacy among state and local agencies.
Welcome to the 2016 CCS Honor Concert. On behalf of the CMEA Central Coast Section Board of Directors, congratulations to the top young musicians from four counties who perform today and to those who made the extraordinary effort to audition for these high caliber ensembles. Our Honors Concerts are the largest events we produce annually, building cohesion of pedagogy in the art form and establishing a high standard for music education within our section.
Students are able to expand their study of music with the support of their communities, families, teachers and school administrators by auditioning or participating in this event. Thank you for valuing arts education by supporting a young person’s journey to this stage. Each note represents the hard work and
dedication of the student musicians as well as the people behind them who help see potential and value in this life long skill that preserves culture and tradition.
The guest conductors have selected and prepared some challenging and engaging repertoire while winning the respect and hearts of our Central Coast students and educators. Our students have built new connections with peer musicians and have grown as young adults while preparing for this event -- all in less than 48 hours! Thorough preparation by the conductors and teachers, and diligent work done by the students combine to bring an extra sense of refinement to the concert. If you agree, thank an administrator for keeping music in our schools, and thank a teacher for supporting the professional membership of CMEA/NAf ME.
Today’s concert is being digitally recorded and will be available for purchase. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to obtain a professional recording that preserves and documents this accomplishment for your student musician and family. Ordering information can be found on the back page of this program.
Please plan to enjoy the entire concert. Concert etiquette and respect for the musicians asks that you silence all electronics, escort distressed children to the lobby, and use flash photography only between pieces. It is also requested that, if necessary, you enter or exit only between performances.
Thank you for supporting a truly balanced curriculum for your student that includes music educa-tion. Enjoy the concert!
Best Regards,Willow Manspeaker, PresidentCMEA-Central Coast Section

Arrivée received a bachelor's degree from Princeton University and a master of music degree in orches-tral conducting from Boston University, where he studied with David Hoose. While in Boston, Arrivée was active as a clarinetist in the Boston University Symphony Orchestra, as a vocal accompanist and as a conductor. He served as the assistant for the Boston University Symphony Orchestra and the March Chapel Choir of Boston University, conducted the Auros Ensemble for New Music, and sang with the Cantata Singers. During a period abroad, Arrivée lived and worked in Leipzig, Germany, where he served as a pianist and conductor for the Schola Cantorum. He moved to Chicago to pursue a doctorate in orches-tral conducting at Northwestern University with Victor Yampolsky, and wrote a dissertation on the use of other arts in educational concerts.
He has participated as a conducting fellow at the Tanglewood Music Center, as a pianist in the Schumann Duos Program at The Britten-Pears School for Advanced Musical Study, England, and as a con-ductor at the International Workshop for Conductors in the Czech Republic. He has studied under Robert Spano, Larry Rachleff, Gustav Meier, Zdenek Macal, and Charles Bruch, among others.
He lives near the ocean with his wife, Dr. Janet Joichi, their son, and two labrador retrievers.
