"Governor Kean has been a true champion of the arts in New Jersey," NJSO Board of Trustees Co-Chairs Ruth Lipper and Stephen Sichak Jr. said. "During his time in office, he expanded arts funding and supported the development of the New Jersey Performing Arts Center and other world-class facilities. His legacy endures in our state's vibrant arts culture, and we are proud to honor him and celebrate his milestone birthday at our Spring into Music Gala."
The Orchestra's third pops concert of the season caps the evening. Spectrum recreates the sounds of Motown legends like The Four Tops, The Temptations, Smokey Robinson, The Drifters, The Miracles and other R&B sensations. The quartet brings its signature harmonies and energy to "Just My Imagination," "My Girl," "The Way You Do the Things You Do" and other classic Motown hits.
All proceeds from the gala event will support the NJSO as it enriches lives through its artistic, music education and community engagement programs.

THE NEW JERSEY SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA
Named "a vital, artistically significant musical organization" by The Wall Street Journal, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra embodies that vitality through its statewide presence and critically acclaimed performances, education partnerships and unparalleled access to music and the Orchestra's superb musicians.
Under the bold leadership of Music Director Jacques Lacombe, the NJSO presents classical, pops and family programs, as well as outdoor summer concerts and special events. Embracing its legacy as a statewide orchestra, the NJSO is the resident orchestra of the New Jersey Performing Arts Center in Newark and regularly performs at the State Theatre in New Brunswick, Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, Richardson Auditorium in Princeton, Mayo Performing Arts Center in Morristown and bergenPAC in Englewood. Partnerships with New Jersey arts organizations, universities and civic organizations remain a key element of the Orchestra's statewide identity.
In addition to its lauded artistic programming, the NJSO presents a suite of education and community engagement programs that promote meaningful, lifelong engagement with live music. Programs include the three-ensemble NJSO Youth Orchestras, school-time Concerts for Young People performances and multiple offerings-including the El Sistema-inspired NJSO CHAMPS (Character, Achievement and Music Project)-that provide and promote in-school instrumental instruction as part of the NJSO Academy. The NJSO's REACH (Resources for Education and Community Harmony) chamber music program annually brings original programs-designed and performed by NJSO musicians-to a variety of settings, reaching as many as 17,000 people in nearly all of New Jersey's 21 counties.
For more information about the NJSO, visit www.njsymphony.org or email information@njsymphony.org. Tickets are available for purchase by phone 1.800.ALLEGRO (255.3476) or on the Orchestra's website.
The New Jersey Symphony Orchestra's programs are made possible in part by The New Jersey State Council on the Arts, along with many other foundations, corporations and individual donors. United is the official airline of the NJSO.
