The Philadelphia Orchestra Implements The Billy Joel Fund for Music Education with the School District of Philadelphia

September 18, 2008

Schoolchildren from 90 Philadelphia City Schools will begin reaping the benefits of the Philadelphia Orchestra Billy Joel Fund for Music Education this season. The Billy Joel Fund for Music Education was established in January 2008 with a donation from legendary singer-songwriter and composer Billy Joel, who was inspired to create the Fund when he accepted The Philadelphia Orchestra’s invitation to perform with the Orchestra on the Academy of Music’s 151st Anniversary Concert.
