The Perilous Life of Symphony Orchestras by Robert J. Flanagan Pdf

This book analyzes the economic challenges facing symphony orchestras and contrasts the experience of orchestras in the United States (where there is little direct government support) and abroad (where governments typically provide large direct subsidies). Robert J. Flanagan explains the tension between artistic excellence and financial jeopardy that confronts most symphony orchestras. He analyzes three complementary strategies for addressing orchestras' economic challenges—raising performance revenues, slowing the growth of performance expenses, and increasing nonperformance income—and demonstrates that none of the three strategies alone is likely to provide economic security for orchestras.

Last Year's Words, and Next Year's Voices: Essays and Speeches from a Decade as Chairman of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians by Bruce Ridge Pdf

Author Bruce Ridge served as chair of the International Conference of Symphony and Opera Musicians from 2006 to 2016. In this time of economic upheaval and social change, when orchestras were besieged with lockouts and bankruptcies, many questioned the value of the symphony orchestra to society. Into this environment, Ridge brought an eloquent, positive message, embracing connection through social media, highlighting the value of musicians to their community, and promoting the healing orchestral music can provide. The essays and speeches Ridge shares recount ICSOM's expanding role as a true advocacy organization under his leadership. He addresses topics both global and personal, ranging from arts education's role in a vibrant civil society to the challenges of maintaining mental health in a stressful profession. This collection of writings serves as a remarkable journal of advocacy on behalf of one of the world's greatest cultural treasures: our symphony orchestras.

Music as Alchemy by Tom Service Pdf

How are conductors' silent gestures magicked into sound by a group of more than a hundred brilliant but belligerent musicians? The mute choreography of great conductors has fascinated and frustrated musicians and music-lovers for centuries. Orchestras can be inspired to the heights of musical and expressive possibility by their maestros, or flabbergasted that someone who doesn't even make a sound should be elevated to demigod-like status by the public. This is the first book to go inside the rehearsal rooms of some of the most inspirational orchestral partnerships in the world - how Simon Rattle works at the Berlin Philharmonic, how Mariss Jansons deals with the Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam, and how Claudio Abbado creates the world's most luxurious pick-up band every year with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra. From London to Budapest, Bamberg to Vienna, great orchestral concerts are recreated as a collection of countless human and musical stories.
