SUMMARY:The IVS Audio Database
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nPresenter:\nSherry Grant\nThe IVS Audio Database\, developed by the International Viola Society in collaboration with Music4Viola\, is a growing online platform dedicated to rare and lesser-known works for viola and piano—particularly from the Romantic and Post-Romantic eras. Generously supported by Hansruedi Graef (Music4Viola.info and Viva Viola edition)\, this project aims to bring forgotten repertoire back to life through high-quality\, freely accessible recordings. \nThe idea emerged from the need to support violists—especially students—in exploring unfamiliar works without the barrier of unavailable or commercial recordings. Many pieces remain unplayed simply because they lack audio references. The IVS Audio Database fills this gap by offering recordings classified by difficulty\, length\, and theme\, allowing users to easily discover suitable repertoire for study\, performance\, or research. \nThe platform also provides curated lists\, helping users navigate the collection by composer\, historical period\, or thematic focus. A video trailer demonstrates how to explore the database and how to contribute. \nWe warmly invite violists around the world to participate by submitting their own recordings—live or studio—of lesser-known works. Recordings must be free of copyright\, but don’t need to be commercial productions. Quality live performances are welcome. \nThis is a collaborative project\, intended to grow through global contributions from students\, professionals\, and viola societies. It not only enriches the available repertoire but also strengthens our shared musical heritage. \nJoin us at InternationalViolaSociety.com/audiodatabase/ as we expand access to the viola’s rich and diverse legacy.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:May the Music Never End: Medicine for Musicians
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””] \nPresenter:\nDr. François DeAsis\, DO\nIt is no secret that musicians will inevitably experience some type of physical injury over the course of their careers. However\, when these occur\, it can be difficult to know who to turn to for proper advice. Performing Arts Medicine is small field in medicine dedicated to supporting the health and wellbeing of performing artists. Because it is rather small\, many performers are either not aware it exists or have minimal exposure to it. In this lecture/workshop\, I will briefly introduce the audience to performing arts medicine\, how to find healthcare professionals within the field\, and the ways we can help. Then\, I will give an overview of the most common types of injuries that musicians experience\, how to recognize them\, and when to seek a healthcare professional. My philosophy is centered around preventative care\, and so for final part\, I will discuss straightforward strategies that musicians can implement into their own daily routines and share with their studios in order to reduce the risk of injury. There will also be an interactive portion\, where I teach the audience a simple and quick exercise band warmup routine for string players.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
