wheres the trust
erm fuck
hehe wow its not as late as i’d previously thought. gosh.
see?
maybe i should write about some ideas here.that i’ve had in the last week.
the trust:
constitution
a1 the trust must strive to provide free/donation based access to studio equipment, rehearsal space, platforms for promotion, and relevant learning resources to those who would otherwise struggle to get it.a2 the trust must maintain the orchestra.provision of free/cheap rehearsal space. minimum 1 rehearsal a month. minimum 1 new peice / workshop / guest conductor every 3 rehearsals. minimum 2 performances a year. minimum 1 commission from outside of Trust membership a year. no refusal of potential members.
a3 the Trust must invest in, embrace and dramatically further local composition through various projects. No project is to be undertaken that is solely to generate funds: projects must promote the arts ando/r support/involve the community.
b funds can be generated for the Trust via:
b1 publications / releases
annual or bi-annual Anthology of Bristol Composers
open call. composers living in or near Bristol within the 2 years preceeding. work completed the same year.
the CD – selected works performed by the orchestra, studio recording. minimum 1 per year.
other publications / releases.
b2 charging for events / workshops / exhibitions / performances / seminars
some workshops must remain free/donation based (see a1)
guest speakers
gigs
groups building excercises
etc
erm what else oh yeah also writing pieces that exist over many parts that can be freely distributed.
