The past few days have been consumed with finishing up a very exciting project with a players’ association from an ICSOM ensemble. Before the work is coming to a close at the beginning of next month, I’ll be joining members from the group’s orchestra committee and their Local AFM president to present an outline of the project at next week’s ICSOM conference in Minneapolis, MN. All of the details about the program and which group I’m working with will be published here at Adaptistration following the conference but suffice to say, it has been a fantastic project; one which will help establish the requirements for a healthy working environment between musicians, managers, and board members. There’s much more to share but you’ll have to wait until next week (although with a little creative digging on your part, you’ll likely find more details before then).
