TICKETING PROCEDURE WHAT IS CHAMBER MUSIC? Chamber
Music America defines chamber music as "music written for small
ensembles, whose members generally perform one to a part without a
conductor." At the
heart of chamber music lies the spirit of collaboration and the role of the
individual performer. Chamber music places the highest order of
responsibility upon the individual to engage in a close musical dialogue with
the other performers. As a collaborative expression, chamber music relies
upon the collective musical instincts, experience, knowledge and talents of
its participants to guide the process of interpreting, rehearsing and
performing a composer's creation. Historically,
chamber music has referred to Western classical music written for small
ensembles such as the string quartet. Today, however, many different kinds of
musical styles and ensembles thrive in the diverse world that is chamber
music.

Notes
from the Artistic Directors Welcome
to another season of world-class concerts.
As you know, members of the HJCMS and concert-going guests have a
privilege afforded to a small percentage of music lovers around the globe,
the privilege of seeing and hearing live virtuoso music. This privilege is only made possible
through the combination of your ongoing support, fund-raising efforts by the
staff, leadership of the Board, and a stable financial base. Since
organizations like ours rely on member support, the board is issuing a plea
to all concert attendees to become active in the Society. If you are a first-time or occasional concert
guest, please consider becoming a member.
If you are already a member, please consider becoming a
volunteer. Volunteers are the key to
successful event planning, fund raisers, and membership drives. The HJCMS is not uncommon in that ticket
sales provide less than half of the annual budgetary needs. Corporate support, membership growth, and
increased community awareness are essential to maintaining our current level
of musical excellence. With increased
membership sales, member participation, and revenue, our programs to educate
and promote young area musicians can continue to grow. To accomplish these goals, the HJCMS needs
you. To
become an HJCMS member, purchase a season subscription. With this membership you will be able to ·
Attend concerts at the
$15 member rate (non-member rate is $25 per concert) ·
Be invited to the
annual end-of-season membership party ·
Be a part of the
Hausmusik concert series ·
Attend all HJCMS
sponsored master classes at no additional charge ·
Attend after-concert
dinner (on your own) with the artists at Crums on Central ·
Attend all other
events planned for the membership. As a
volunteer, you will be awarded a voucher redeemable for a free guest pass to
the concert of your choice for each volunteer activity in which you participate. Volunteer groups will be listed in the
program and all volunteers will be recognized and honored at the final
concert of the season. Join the
fun and get on board for a labor of love as member-volunteers of the
HJCMS. Email us at hjcms@comcast.net
or call us at 706-733-5178 to sign-up as an active member of the team
dedicated to promoting and supporting world-class musical concerts here in
the CSRA. Linda
Banister & Quentin Kuyper If you subscribe
to any of the social media network regularly (Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, etc.), it would be beneficial to
post information about the Harry Jacobs Chamber Music Series. In
addition to your personal statement, you could direct your correspondents to
the HJCMS website, which is hjcms.org. |
