orchestra


As for imagining the future, we do not need a telescope to predict the urge and restlessness inherent in each generation to go boldly “where no one has gone before,” such as the current leanings toward the digital and toward world music, cross- pollination and hybrid forms of music. But ultimately each age lays another brick into a proud and compelling tradi- tion which begins with the joy of simple


music-making and self-expression, aspires to excellence, and as always is propelled by the educators who draw from their own beginnings as they accept their position of leadership and inspiration in the time- space continuum.
