Who’d have guessed I’d be a star of stage AND screen?
This being my 20th year as Maestro of the Kingston Symphony, I can honestly say I’ve been around the musical block more than a few times. But this is the first time I’ve been asked to be in a movie! And truth be told, I’m now in several!
Prior to each concert this season, audience members will gain some insight into the music being performed through a series of short films starring yours truly. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll… okay, maybe not. But hopefully my words will provide some facts and fun and prepare you for some amazing music.
For those who are interested in seeing my YouTube debut, an introduction video is now online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxQI4hzD8Nk and here:
Other, slightly more informative, videos will become available prior to each concert throughout the season. Stay tuned!
And I’ve had so much fun writing blogs and making YouTube videos that I thought I’d add another information age phenomenon to the list – a podcast. We’re exploring the idea of a regular podcast, and while the details have yet to be finalized, I’m excited to promote the Kingston Symphony through any and all avenues. And if it means I’ll become a little more hip throughout the process, I’m okay with that too.
For now, though, I’m still most comfortable on the podium. We’ve got a great season lined up, which kicks off on Sunday, October 3 and continues until May. There are several concerts you won’t want to miss. Visit www.kingstonsymphony.on.ca/concert_listings.cfm for more information.
Enjoy!
