I'm wrapping up my final two weeks of interning! I'm going to miss talking to the staff here; they're so much fun! Hopefully I can come back and say Helloo soon!
Last week I continued to wrap up a few minor projects I've been working on. I know I had a nice chat with Julia about organization structure among other things...we continued to do some filing. I spent quite some time looking through Julia's arts advocacy articles and documents about the advantages of art/music in education-HOORAY:)
I continued to tweak the concert program for the October Stop! Look! Listen! event. So far I've found some sea songs/shanties arranged for string quartet, some programmatic works by Debussy and Ravel, and an arrangement of Under the Sea for string quartet. Putting a program together has been a fun challenge and it pushes me to stay up to date on repertoire outside of the two instruments I play.
Julia is beginning to meet with teachers (some first year music teachers!) this week about ProMusica Education events/opportunities for the upcoming school year, so I got to assemble the folders of information that she gives them. I had already updated several of these documents, so assembling them into folders wasn't too much of a task; I just had to duke it out with the printer a couple times. Ha ha.
Julia informed me of an arts advocacy website: www.dana.org
On this site are many articles about the DANA organization and how it advocates arts and science. Very informative stuff!!
