2019-20 Events
Upcoming Event
A workshop designed for all conductors working towards taking that step into the professional world, "Conducting the Interview" is a completely online workshop focused on the interview portion of the search process for conductors.
10 Participants will engage in a mock interview for a real-world position -- either as assistant conductor with a large organization, or as music director of a regional professional orchestra. The interviews will be conducted through Zoom for a panel of industry professionals, led by Henry Fogel, past president of the League of American Orchestras and consultant to orchestras across the United States. Participants will have the chance to have resumes, cover letters and application materials reviewed by Mr. Fogel.
In addition, there will be an interview and Q&A with John Devlin, music director of Wheeling Symphony.
The entire workshop will be open to auditors as well, who will have the chance to observe all the sessions and interact fully with the faculty.
Due to the ongoing crisis affecting our country and the world, performances scheduled through the fall of 2020 have been cancelled.
My profound thanks and admiration go out to all those unsung heroes around the country who are providing medical care, keeping our food supply safe, delivering our mail and packages, and searching for the vaccine.
I look forward, as do we all in the community of performing artists, to sharing the joy of live performance with you once again.
