As you may or may not already know, the National Performing Arts Convention takes place next month in Denver. It is a major event for anyone professionally involved in music, theater or dance. As someone with an interest in opera, theater, orchestral and choral music, I am looking forward to attending this for the first time. I’ll probably be spending most of my time in the Opera America sphere.
So, I’m curious: who out there is also going as an individual? Composers, performers, directors, etc? I’d love to see some comments here about what your goals are and how you plan to pursue them. If you’ve been to these conferences in the past, how effective or useful was it?
I hope comments here can be of benefit to other readers, but if you prefer to keep it private, by all means write to me directly.
By the way, I think registration is still open. Here’s a partial list of service organizations that comprise this event.
- American Composers Forum
- American Music Center
- Association of Performing Arts Presenters
- Chamber Music America
- Chorus America
- Conductors Guild
- Dance/USA
- Early Music America
- International Society for the Performing Arts
- League of American Orchestras
- Meet The Composer
- North American Performing Arts Managers and Agents
- OPERA America
- Theatre Communications Group
