We are pleased to announce that in March Temple Contemporary will be installing repair kits for instruments in every Philadelphia public school music classroom, to aid on the expansion of the project, Symphony for a Broken Orchestra. The project was born as the result of a a visionary composition by David Lang, featuring the School District of Philadelphia’s 1,500 broken instruments. The instruments that were used in the concert have been repaired, and were returned to the School District in the fall 2018. For more information, please visit symphonyforabrokenorchestra.org.
