The CCM Philharmonia will perform Mahler 5 on Friday evening October 10. Auditions for the trumpet section will be held next week.
As we enter these exciting days, here are a few inspiring quotes from the great Arnold Jacobs:
"The big thing about music—or any other art form—is that you can enjoy
what you are doing, but others must also enjoy what you are doing. It should be like painting a beautiful picture on canvas
for others to appreciate. When you are playing a solo, you are not playing
for yourself, but for the people who are listening."
"In your thoughts, be a musician not a mechanic."
"One
should have a great sound in the brain to imitate."
"It doesn't have to feel good, it just has to sound great!"
Guys, remember: drama, power, finesse, and beauty. And one more: pacing!
