What is your new normal going to be?
My students are primed for a return to normalcy in the fall. Concerts are on the calendar, retreats are being scheduled, and we’re anticipating a full menu of the statewide events we usually enjoy being a part of.
But with over a year (and two graduating classes) between the old normal and the new normal, it’s time to actively think about what stays and what goes. Because if we don’t actively think about it, it will default into the old normal – and the opportunity to reinvent will disappear.
What does your new normal look like with regard to:
- Concert attire
- Travel
- Participation Fees
- Rehearsal schedules
- Performance schedules
- Collaborations
- Repertoire choices
- Classroom expectations
All of these are ripe for reconsideration, if only we choose to do so.
