Future programming and odds and ends

Steve and I had a lengthy talk about all sorts of things tonight, and in the middle of it all we just stopped and said "Whoa, we're talking about next year. There's going to be a next year". How cool is that? Nine months ago this baby was only a twinkle in our eyes and now it's starting to walk on its own.

We've got lots of really great programming ideas on tap for next year and beyond. Details will start rolling in when we have things a bit more solid but you can be sure that we'll be bringing fresh ideas and top-notch performances to Miami and the rest of South Florida.

I met with Jim Stephenson this past week in Naples, FL, and we discussed his arranging Ravel's Mother Goose Suite for String Quintet, Piano and Percussion, as well as writing a new piece for us which we'll put on an all-American program sometime in the next year or two. We're excited to be working with Jim, whose composing career is really taking off.

More very soon. Check back often. We're doing things nobody else is doing down here-or maybe anywhere else!
