The concerto will be performed by Daniel Huang, the symphony’s 2024 Young Artist Competition winner. “I was impressed with Daniel’s command of the piece,” said maestro Greg Woodbridge. “He captured the power and the elegance without ever being out of control. He plays with a rhythmic precision and a beautiful, singing tone.” Huang has been studying piano for 12 years and plans to study violin performance in college. “It has been a great honor to be selected as the winner of the Young Artist Competition. I am
very excited for this opportunity to be able to play with such an incredible orchestra and in front of an audience of so many music lovers,” said Huang.

Kiwanis Clubs provide items to schools The Kiwanis Clubs of Palmyra, Annville, and Lebanon will provide assistance to schools through a grant from the Pennsylvania Kiwanis District Foundation. The funds will be used to ensure that the nurses in the three school districts served by the clubs receive essential items needed to serve the students in their schools. This project will be ongoing throughout the 2024-25 school year. After interviewing a number of area nurses, the Lebanon County Kiwanis Clubs became aware that every school has a constant need for clothing and personal hygiene
products. With the Kiwanis Clubs providing additional items, the nurses will be able to supplement their supply of emergency clothing that is used throughout the school day. Kiwanis is a nonprofit organization of volunteers dedicated to serving children. The Pennsylvania Kiwanis Foundation encourages Kiwanis Clubs and Kiwanis-family service leadership programs to apply for grants that further the goals and ideals of Kiwanis and that promote the growth of Kiwanis. For more information about Kiwanis, email KiwanisCPA@yahoo.com.
