Great music-making emanates from a moment when the performance skills are so well-honed, the whole becomes exponentially greater than the sum of its parts. These rare synergistic moments require a process which begins at a technical level but transcends technique to become something wonderful that may touch the very soul of the conductor, performer and listener. Indeed, music has the power to touch the soul in a place nothing else can if we take our students BEYOND THE NOTES.
