Today we talk with conductor Matthew Salvaggio, Music Director of the Euclid Symphony, University Heights Band, and Orchestra 19 about how we can bring our volunteer and community ensembles to a new level by collaborating with new artists and composers. We talk about rehearsing and growing these groups to lead them towards greater music and music-making together, and how you can commission new pieces and bring in guest soloists with a limited budget. Plus, how is our academic system flawed for the 21st-century student, and what can orchestras do to ensure a brighter future for all of us? All of that and more in “Elevate your Community Groups,” with Matthew Salvaggio.
