INTRODUCTION

The Vision

  • Sam from Groupmuse

  • Christos from Autumn Salon

  • We've organized over 10,000 concerts

  • Why we're doing this

    • A new vision for classical music

    • Overturning assumptions

    • Liberating from preconceived ideas of what classical music is, and how we are supported to experience it

    • To renew this art form at a time when the world needs:

      • Beauty

      • Depth

      • Connection to a more sacred past

  • Musician as a cultural force in the world

    • An agent of that beauty, that depth. 

    • An accumulation of thousands of hours of singleminded intention. That is so rare and so precious. 

    • It’s a holy thing to do at a time when the profane has come to rule. 

    • The Good News is that this is your time.

  • How this is going to work.

    • This is not a class to learn a bunch of things. This is a class to do things. You will have a concert series in the works by the end of it.

    • The ARC, starting from first principles:

      • Alignment (Finding your radiant center/Craft and Creativity

      • Ritual (Finding your host and your space/Invoking Magic)

      • Culture (The Beloved Community/Technology)
