Do we want to try to get started next week? If so, we should start pulling
together a plan/curriculum soon.

I see Dr. Rush even did two of the three that I requested he consider (voice
notation and horn transposing)!

Funny, I’ve been thinking about this for a while and it’s been a bit daunting
for me because I’ve been furiously redesigning curricula for AOMA in Zoom
format. I’m thinking that we could start with rhythmic solfège, then keys
(circle of fifths/fourths and then chords). Jarred, Warren and Mike are on the
right track here. I think we can also invite other community groups to
participate. I could initiate a Zoom meeting for Tuesday night groups and run
it until restrictions are lifted. Ideas?

Good ideas. I would be up for anything like that. Would definitely be good to
try to keep folks connected.

Random thoughts that occurred to me on my walk this evening:
To help keep people in the spirit of ACWE, what would you guys think of trying
to coordinate (via some video conferencing program) a series of music
classes/learning sessions on Tuesday nights during our regular rehearsal time.
We could do some music theory (like the classes Warren organized a few years
ago), some music history (like in college music appreciation classes), perhaps
even a night of ACWE history with people just talking about their experiences
(the Whitwell season alone could fill an entire night). We could even try, if
the tech works, a critical listening of some previous ACWE concerts: point out
what worked well and how much stronger passages could have been with dynamic
contrast. That sort of thing. Clearly, these would be totally voluntary, but it
could help keep ACWE on people's minds and keep their minds off more depressing
topics. Plus, a little music theory couldn't hurt anyone, right?
