Description:

Instead of creating a cookie-cutter orchestra to plug into every city, let’s create unique ensembles by bringing together all parts of our communities through programming, performance and commissions that directly tie to our areas. We will discuss and debate all aspects of entrepreneurialism in the orchestral field through case studies from the River Oaks Chamber Orchestra (ROCO) like: Beer and Brass at a brewery, Dia de Los Muertos celebration and ROCOrooters music ed/datenight.
