2011 Show House Preview Party
Against All Odds – A Successful 2011 Show House Preview Party!
More than 300 intrepid and fearless Preview Party guests, 8 food vendors, and 22 volunteer workers braved the
frigid weather, not to mention a re-scheduling of our Party due to Blizzard #1, an exploding water pipe as the
Party was beginning, and a second imminent snow storm, to attend our 2011 Show House Preview Party – and
we are so grateful!
Please show your appreciation by patronizing and THANKING the following restaurants and stores who so
generously donated and served their delicious food:
Upper Crust Pizza on Classen Curve, Crest Foods, Kyle’s 1025, Bricktown Brewery, Brown’s Bakery,
Paseo Grill, The Whole Enchilada, and Big Truck Tacos.
And a special THANK YOU to all of you who paid but were unable to attend the Party.
Best wishes for a terrific 2011 Show House from
Lucy Cheatwood and John Ederer, Preview Party Co-chairs for 2011

From The President’s Desk
The office of President: a flurry of constant meetings and preparations, from Public
Relations to Social, Membership, Budget and Finance, Competitions, Education, four
General Meetings, Executive Board meetings every month, and joint Board Meetings every
other month. The Executive Committee and Board of Directors do an excellent job of
facilitating all of our programs.
I am so proud of our Organization and each one of our members. Not until I started
serving as President of the League did I begin to get a true appreciation of who we truly are.
As I watch each of you find your special niche, your gift, your place to serve our community,
I can only hope that you too can see what a difference you are making in the lives of people
in our communities, our city and our state.
Each year our organization unites its talents and vision to create a truly miraculous
fundraiser, the Symphony Show House. The Show House is pretty much a year round project
and we are in the busiest part of that year! This year’s Show House, “The French Country
Chateau” is a real beauty. Please volunteer! The Show House is the vehicle that allows us to
provide needed support to our Philharmonic. The Show House belongs to all of us; it takes
all of us to make this project a big success! Together we can hit this one out of the park!
As I presented our check for $175,000 to the Philharmonic on the Saturday night of
the Midori Classics Concert, I thought of each one of you and how that check represents all
of us and hundreds more that volunteer and share our passion to make a difference. We are
proud stewards of a legacy that was doing quite well before a lot of
us were even born. Today’s Orchestra League members are dedicated
to a proud tradition of community service that supports 17 different
music education programs, I believe the founding members of the
Women’s Committee would be very proud….

Eddie’s Notes
Dear League Friends,
It’s hard to believe that our Show House project is upon us, and that the end of the
concert season is right around the corner. It’s been a terrific year, one with surprises and
challenges and many successes. Through it all, YOU WERE THERE. In the schools,
in the concert hall, and with me on stage at Civic Center presenting the Phil with your
generous and hard-earned support in the amount of $175,000. We appreciate it, and
we don’t take it for granted. We know how much effort is involved to raise this money
which supports great music and music education in our schools.
Here’s to a record-breaking 2011 Show House and Gardens!
Thank you!
Eddie Walker, Executive Director
Oklahoma City Philharmonic
Public Relations - Government Affairs
The arts and charitable giving will face steep challenges as Congress acts in response to the President’s FY12
budget request. The request reduces funding for the NEA by $21.2 million, a 13% cut from current funding levels.
It eliminates the U.S. Department of Education’s Arts in Learning for a Well-Rounded Education and it limits the
value of itemized charitable giving deductions for higher income taxpayers. We must convince Congress that
investing in the arts supports economic growth, strengthens American communities and is a national asset that we
must not do without.

Music Education Activities in the OKC Metro Area
Third and fourth grade students throughout the Metro have been enjoying the sounds of individual
orchestral instruments and portions of beautiful compositions, learning details of composers’ lives, and
practicing a little conducting as they participate in the OCOL’s We’ve Got Rhythm program. Our 15 volunteers
and eight Philharmonic musicians have endured multiple adjustments to our schedule as the severe winter
weather played havoc with our presentation plans! These activities will culminate with a wonderful concert
for the students performed by the Phil on May 3 and 4.
Children of all ages were treated to several days of fun, including Musical Stories and Instrument
Playground as a part of the collaboration between the OKC Philharmonic and the Metro Area Library System.
The Discovery concert, “Bravo Dr. Seuss!” was enjoyed by all.
A highlight of our spring is seeing the delightful artwork created by Metro area third through eighth
grade students as they participate in Sound Images. The students’ artwork will be judged in mid-April and will
be displayed at the Civic Center and the 2011 Show House Tea Room in May.

OKLAHOMA CITY ORCHESTRA LEAGUE, INC.
General Meeting • February 14, 2011
The Orchestra League met in the beautiful home of the League’s President, Sharon Shelton, and her
husband John, at 11:30 a.m. Following lunch, Sharon called the meeting to order at 12:30 p.m. and said how
happy she and John were to be our hosts. She then thanked Marilyn Long and the hospitality committee,
Wanda Reynolds, Kirstin Reynolds, Carol Lawrence and Lucy Cheatwood, who set up and helped serve the
delicious lunch provided by our caterer, Susie Booth.
Minutes of the previous General Meeting of November 8, 2010 were approved as printed in the Opus.
Treasurer Bonnie Young reported she had received a check from last year’s Show House in the amount of
$208,000 with an after expenses profit of $142,000. But after writing a check for $175,000 for the League’s
endowment to the Philharmonic there was a deficit. Bonnie reminded us all that we need to work hard on NoteAble Occasions and the Show House again this year so we don’t have to face another deficit.
Eddie Walker, Philharmonic Executive Director, spoke to the group saying how great it was to see
everyone and thanking the League for the endowment and the work we do. He suggested we watch this
month’s Gallery on OETA as it features the Oklahoma City Ballet with the Orchestra. Eddie mentioned the
last couple of weeks had been challenging for both the staff and musicians. Changes had to be made to the
February 5 Mahler Classics Concert because of the winter snow storm which made it impossible to have the
number of rehearsals required. They decided to call Sergio Monteiro, head of the Piano program at Oklahoma
City University, who agreed to step in, choosing a Grieg Concerto which the Orchestra was able to do with only
one rehearsal. The Mahler will be rescheduled for next year. Things are going really well and donations are
strong. The education programs still continue to flourish as we partnership together in this endeavor. Eddie
said we are truly “sweethearts” and wished us a great, great
Show House!
Sharon called on Cathy Wallace, Past President and Chairman of the Nominating Committee, who
presented the following slate of officers for the 2011-2012 year: President - Rhonda White; President Elect
– Cindy Raby; Secretary – Susan Gertson; Treasurer – Rita Dearmon; Assistant Treasurer – Bonnie Young;
Administrative VP – Lucy Cheatwood; Competitions VP – Martha Pendleton; Education VP – Jeanne Jackson;
Membership VP – Wanda Reynolds; Public Relations VP – Sandi Garrett; Social Events VP – Kirstin Reynolds;
Ways and Means VP – Sue Francis; and Past Pres. & Nominating Chair – Sharon Shelton. Cathy said these are
challenging times and thanked all these ladies for stepping up to serve. She moved the slate be approved by
acclamation. The motion was seconded and the slate was approved as presented. Sharon thanked Cathy and
the members of her committee for their efforts and congratulated the nominees on their selection.
Sandi Garrett reported for Music Olympics. It was a great, but long day with a total of 136 contestants.
Sandi said she was just blown away by the talent of these young people and was especially pleased with the
new Haire Classical Guitar Competition which had 11 entries. She thanked all the members of her committee
and their volunteers as well as the League members who contributed food. Sandi also said she is sad to be
leaving as MO Chair; it has been a great two years but she knows she is leaving the Olympics in good hands
with Martha.
Cindy Raby gave an update on Note-Able Occasions. Among the events scheduled are a Chef’s Dinner
April 3 chaired by Sue Francis and Marie Gravley with outstanding food and an auction featuring fabulous
prizes. April 21st is a garden party progressive dinner in three homes with entertainment in the second home
by noted pianist Valery Kuleshov. And June 4 is a skeet shoot, Aiming for the Arts, chaired by Rhonda White.

General Meeting Continued
Wanda Reynolds, Membership VP, gave a report on the second “Who We Are and What We Do” event
for new members in the home of Sue and John Francis on January 17. It was a wonderful event and Wanda
thanked Sue for her gracious hospitality. All new members will get an invitation to the next party, March 28, in
the home of LaDonna and Herman Meinders. Wanda introduced newest member Ann Mobridge who joined at
today’s luncheon. The total of new members as of today is 28.
Sharon called on Cindy Raby and Yvette Fleckinger to talk about the Show House. Cindy thanked
the group for allowing her to serve as president-elect and then later as president and expressed what an honor
it is to serve such a group of wonderful people. The house is fabulous; things are in full swing and going
smoothly with a great group of designers. She urged everyone to tell all their friends. Yvette announced early
bird discount ticket sales are underway and passed around order forms. For $40 you can get six tickets which
average only $6.66 per ticket, a real bargain. She urged everyone to take advantage of this opportunity.
The Major Leaguers, under the direction of Kathlyn Reynolds and accompanied by Eleanor Whitsett,
provided entertainment. In recognition of the upcoming April 1 and 2 POPS Concert by the Philharmonic,
“From Ragtime to Ritzes” featuring the works of Irving Berlin, the chorus sang a medley of his songs ending
with “God Bless America.” They did a great job and received a standing ovation!
Sharon thanked everyone for coming and again expressed her appreciation for the support and dedication
of the League members. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully submitted,
Betty Burns, Recording Secretary
Don and Eleanor Whitsett enjoy visiting with

PHILHARMONIC MUSICIAN PROFILE
Suzuki Kid, Violinist Elizabeth Lyon
Sinichi Suzuki, originator of a world famous approach to music education for children, held that any
child is capable of developing musical abilities if teaching is done in a loving environment. His “method,”
used to teach music to children as young as 3, holds that learning this complicated skill happens with constant,
gentle encouragement by parents within a joyful, non-threatening setting not unlike that in which children
learn their native language. An essential element is active involvement of parents, who attend lessons and even
learn the instrument with the child. Recently a photo appeared in the local paper showing a young woman with
a broad smile holding a violin at an angle in one hand, in the other a bow held straight up beside her head, and
wearing a red and white-striped top hat tipped at a jaunty angle. Taken at a Dr. Seuss theme event for children
sponsored by the OKC Philharmonic, that picture exemplified the essence of the Suzuki’s objective: to open a
world of beauty to young children that they might have greater enjoyment in their lives through the God-given
sounds of music. The woman in the photo is Elizabeth Lyon, a self-described “Suzuki kid,” whose early music
education through her continuing career has flourished within the Suzuki philosophy.
Three year-old Elizabeth began music studies at her home in Erie PA as she, and her 6 sisters in turn,
received Suzuki violin lessons, while their parents - both string teachers – offered encouragement. At age 10
she attended the Cleveland Institute of Music, Preparatory Division, and was already performing in public.
By 1998 she was a student at OU, studying under Felicia Moye, (former OKC Philharmonic concertmaster),
while also giving private string lessons and being named a National Merit Scholar. While still a student, she
answered an Ad for a job in 2002 which created an interesting “quirk” in her formal violin experience – it was
Mariachi Orgullo de America, Norman; she found their exuberant Mexican music to be an enjoyable learning
experience and spent 5 years playing in the group and writing songs and arrangements for them. In 2003 she
was awarded a BMA and, concurrently, a BA in English literature and immediately found a job as Concertmaster with the Ft. Smith Symphony. Then, having played substitute in the OKC Philharmonic during college, she
soon landed a permanent position. Presently in her 4th season, she is seated beside the Assistant Concertmaster
with all the honor and responsibility of heading the first violin section. Soon after college, Elizabeth took Suzuki Training from Judy Offman and was then well on her way in a parallel professional career, that of private
studio string teacher; from its start in 2000, her teaching roster has grown to 22 and includes students from
toddlers to teens. Still Concertmaster with the Ft. Smith orchestra, she also plays regularly with the orchestras
in Lawton and Tulsa and joins the Erie Philharmonic on occasional visits to her home. She also performs with
the Norman Chamber Players and the OKC Ballet Orchestra, and finds time for OKC Philharmonic outreach
events including “We’ve Got Rhythm.”
Ms. Lyon is one of hundreds of Suzuki music teachers in Oklahoma, probably tens of thousands worldwide, each striving to create a learning environment in which all individual students receive caring, unhurried
instruction supported by their parents’ involvement. The result of her own life experience has been a rewarding
career, one she finds fulfilling even as it is challenging. All that she had hoped for she finds in the work she is
doing with students and the opportunities she enjoys in orchestral performances. In her own words, Elizabeth
says she is “living my dream.” While not all “Suzuki kids” become professional musicians, it is not unlikely
that, whatever career they pursue, the love of music acquired within an “environment of gentle encouragement” will remain with them throughout their adult life. Early music training will be remembered as the joyful
experience represented in the photo of Elizabeth Lyon in the Dr. Seuss hat.

Sporting Clay Tournament at Silverleaf Shotgun Sports
in Guthrie, OK at 9:00 a.m.
Lunch will be provided
Prizes awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place! Raffle with great prizes!
Please join us for the Second Annual “Aiming for the Arts,” Saturday, June 4 at Silverleaf
Shotgun Sports. “Golf with a shotgun” is how many people describe the shotgun sport known as
Sporting Clays. Others prefer to think of it as a sport that “most closely reflects actual hunting
conditions.” Whether you’re more of a golfer or more of a hunter, you’re sure to find lots of fun
and challenge at this Sporting Clay event.
The “Aiming for the Arts” course at Silverleaf Shotgun Sports will take you through a
course of 10 stations. Ten clay discs are fired at each station (not simultaneously) at a variety
of angles and speeds while competitors take aim with their shotgun trying to hit as many of the
targets as they can, thereby creating the challenge for shooters of any skill level.
New to this year’s tournament is a free practice shoot! With a paid registration for the
tournament, you can come out and get free instruction and practice in the afternoon, Friday, June 2
from 4:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. at the Oklahoma City Gun Club’s Shotgun Range, 23751 N. Hiwassee.
There will be free instruction and practice under licensed male and female instructors. Guns and
ammo for this free practice shoot will be provided by the Game & Wildlife Commission.
Whether this is your first time at a Sporting Clay event, you’re a professional shooter, or
you’re somewhere in between, we invite you to join us for a good time at “Aiming for the Arts” as
we “aim” to continue our educational programs for Oklahoma communities.
