Look Inward To Look Forward
I asked my students, in our last rehearsal in November, to look forward by looking inward.
Human Nature
Collegiality
Here are some of the traits that I see contributing to great collegiality.
Everything Is Practice
Everything is practice.
Always Focused
Rehearsal: the one place I’m always focused.
The Answer Is Yes
Who do you want to work with? My answer comes down to this one Leonard Bernstein quote:
Music Is The Balm
Music is the balm we all need.
Implicit Trust
Choirs don’t work without implicit trust.
Still But Tired
You can be exhausted after a day of stillness.
Comforting Isn’t Always the Right Solution
I want to comfort anyone in pain. It’s not always the right call.
Confidence Before You Know The Solution
I believe in optimism as a default position. As an educator, as a leader, as a human being.
