      Essentials of Orchestra Management Seminar

No matter what role you aspire to in serving American orchestras, knowledge of fundamentals is key. The curriculum is shaped so that participants gain an understanding of what constitutes the essential work in each of the functional areas of orchestras, why it is important, and how it is evolving.
