Du fragst dich, wie du als freischaffende(r) Musiker(in) am Effizientesten Networking betreiben kannst?

Oder wie du am Besten mit Veranstaltern oder Agenturen in Kontakt treten solltest? Welche Vor- oder Nachteile hat die Zusammenarbeit mit einer Agentur und in welcher Phase der musikalischen Karriere ist eine solche Zusammenarbeit sinnvoll?

Brauche ich heutzutage überhaupt noch eine physische CD oder reichen digitale Vertriebswege wie Spotify, Idagio, etc?

Diesen noch vielen weiteren Fragen werden wir kommenden Dienstag im zweiten Teil des Vortrags (Self-)Promotion für freischaffende Musiker:innen (Teil der Vortragsreihe der Hmdw Hochschüler_innenschaft) nachgehen!

Die Teilnahme steht jedem offen! Für nicht mdw-Studierende beträgt der Teilnahmebeitrag EUR 10,-. Eine Teilnahme ist sowohl vorort an der mdw oder auch via Zoom möglich.

Habt ihr noch weitere Fragen, die wir unbedingt besprechen sollten? Welche Themen interessieren euch besonders?

Wir freuen uns auf Euch!

Hugh congrats to Niall O'Sullivan - Trumpet, Danielle de Niese and the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra on this amazing concert!
Check out the quotes of the first review of this performance below.

We had an absolute ball on Friday at the Symphony Hall in Birmingham with the incredible City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. Thanks to all who made it possible and to those who attended. It was one to remember for sure 😃

The Review Hub - Selwyn Knight

“Sublime Musicianship”

“O’Sullivan teases emotion from the horn of his various trumpets”

“Almost every piece throughout the evening includes O’Sullivan’s trumpet floating above the orchestra and de Niese’s vocals, such that one might imagine that the evening has been curated more as a showcase for their considerable talents rather than as a trip through musical history.”

“each note and word interpreted with skill”

“One gets the feeling that the soloists are completely at ease with the programme and truly enjoying their performances, which goes a long way to assuring the quality of the evening.”

*** For all our friends in New Zealand ***

Last week, polaris artist Benjamin Morrison (member of the Vienna Philharmonic / Wiener Philharmoniker) was performing with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, on 6 May you can hear him again in Christchurch with the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra when he performs Dvořák's Violin Concerto: https://cso.co.nz/events/white-horses

Spoiler Alert: This won't be Ben's last performance in New Zealand this year ... So stay tuned for more! ;-)

This concert shines the spotlight on two talented New Zealanders. Now Brooklyn-based Gemma Peacocke’s White Horses was inspired by the mystery of Viva Waud Farmar, WWI nurse and one of Aotearoa’s first female pilots. Christchurch-born violinist Benjamin Morrison is the only New Zealander to win ...
