Speaker(s): TBD
Who’s on stage? The racial diversity of musicians is vital for orchestras to reflect the richness of our communities, foster creativity, and remain relevant in a changing cultural landscape; however, some aspects of audition and tenure practices have long created barriers to entry for musicians of color.
This session will feature members of the Inclusive Stages Coalition who are actively rethinking these systems. Learn how their orchestras have built internal momentum, revised policies, and taken concrete steps to address historical and current underrepresentation and create fairer practices for all. You’ll leave with actionable ideas and inspiration to help your orchestra work toward a more accessible and inclusive future.
This session is made possible by a generous grant from the Sakana Foundation.
