yesterday i attended a first tuesday cma seminar on group identity. this will be useful in articulating the mission of our collective, which debuted in may. it's interesting to think of chamber music as a family - in collaborative musical relationships, as in friendships, there here has to be a kind of tensile synergy that encourages dialogue. successful projects are ones that convey that energy in a meaningful and accessible way. i suppose this is a *no duh* moment for many of us, but it's something to which every ensemble - ou bien, relationship - should strive.
the days wear long and hot-i find evenings better times to get a lot accomplished.
looking forward to my bandmates' performance of messiaen's quatuor pour la fin du temps at brooklyn conservatory this evening; should be transcendent.
