painter Frida Kahlo, Salvadoran peasant activist Rufina Amaya and Argentinean poet Alfonsina Storni. A question and answer period with the performers will conclude the program. This program can also be presented in lecture-only form and is suitable

MASTERCLASSES IN CELLO, PIANO AND PERCUSSION

50-90 minute workshops for instrumental music students of all levels.

REINVENTING THE CHAMBER MUSIC ENSEMBLE

As audience demographics change and technology touches the ways in which people experience art, chamber ensembles are seeking new ways to engage audiences. Core Ensemble members discuss their vision of chamber works of the future, citing examples from their own repertoire: Tres Vidas, Of Ebony Embers-Vignettes of the Harlem Renaissance and The Silken Phoenix. Discussion will center on the artistic process of creating the new genre of chamber music theatre as well the social

and cultural issues explored in each work.

THE BUSINESS OF ART

A business plan for performing artists or anyone else interested in the “nuts and bolts” of how an arts organization runs. Invaluable as a career development tool, this seminar is a must for anyone planning a profession in the arts or arts management. Issues such as marketing, publicity, fundraising, grant-writing, non-profit status/incorporation and board development will be discussed.
