Scholarship Description
This scholarship is being established, through the generosity of his family and friends, in loving memory of Christopher J. Fiore, who received a Bachelors Degree in Music Education (’96) and a Masters Degree in Music Performance (’01) from NJCU. At NJCU Chris was an active, sought after, well respected performer and human being. The Orchestra, Symphony of Winds and Percussion, Jazz Ensembles, Choirs, Operas, Chamber Ensembles, Spring Musicals and the Percussion Ensemble were among the many organizations blessed with his wonderful presence; one that deeply touched the community. He loved every aspect of music: performing, composing, listening, and teaching. Chris was an accomplished bassist and by all accounts, he was a very talented musician. He received high praise for his teaching and his work with young musicians. This scholarship in Chris’s memory is a wonderful tribute to his passion for music and his deep commitment to his fellow musicians. This scholarship is awarded to the NJCU music student who most exemplifies the characteristics of passion and dedication to music that were expressed by Chris.
