I've found that composers who understand an instrument's capabilities are far less likely to write something that will cause repetitive strain or injury! - Danielle
"Toolbox Sessions" Virtual Conference - To connect composers and orchestrators with experienced performers and collaborators to delve into effective writing for their respective instruments and voices. Date: May 19-21, 2022
**********
Do you ever wish composers know the struggles we experienced while playing their pieces?
You know there are just some of those musical pieces that take a toll on your body? We love them but as in the case of our latest podcast guest, harpist Danielle Kuntz, the piece by Prokofiev she referenced just automatically is understood that you will develop tendonitis by the end of playing it.
Isn't it insane? Don't you wish composers knew how to better write for your instrument?
That's why she created THE TOOLBOX SESSIONS ( And if you hurry you can still register HERE ). It is a 3-day virtual summit designed to give you the tools you need to write for instruments & voices! From May 19-21, you'll get to join 12+ presentations on writing for specific instruments/voices (oboe, voice, harp, percussion, & more), taught by performer-educators who are passionate about collaborating with composers and arrangers.
