Introducing: Creative Music Workshop - A New Online Learning Initiative From CMS
Dear CMS family,
Today, we launch a brand new initiative a year in the making: a new way to provide a healthy, productive and progressive place for today’s creative musicians to exchange creative ideas and grow themselves and music as a whole… together.
I could not be more honored to lead CMS into this new historical chapter.
I would like to introduce you to Creative Music Workshop. And to celebrate this moment in history, we are opening the doors for free.
We aimed to solve 3 challenges:
– How do we create access to the world’s most innovative creative musicians that’s affordable and accessible worldwide?
– How do we support and grow a community of creative musicians to inspire new collaborations and ideas?
– How do we capture the spirit of our in-person workshops and bring that innovation online?
I believe we accomplished much of this and are far along accomplishing everything else:
– We are opening the doors for free. If and when we ever create a cost to join, we will first start with a “pay what you can afford” model. In other words, money is no longer an issue
– We are starting humbly. But, as you will see, we are already pushing new ideas, whether it’s how we facilitate our community or whether it’s how we present our online workshops, both live and pre-recorded.
– We are opening access, little by little, to our massive archive of recordings of performances and workshops, spanning our entire history.
And this is just the beginning. This new cyber chapter in CMS history, with your collaboration and involvement, will continue to grow creative music from a wonderfully diverse collage of social and cultural backgrounds.
Please join us. It’s free, it’s new, and we want your collaborative spirit to help us grow something profound for creative music.
Go here to sign up.
I have one request, whether you join us or not: PLEASE SHARE AND SPREAD THE WORD!
Post it on social media, tell the world… and especially share it with anyone you know who would want access. Just send them to creativemusicworkshop.com
Year End Fundraising
You already know that Creative Music Studio has a legendary legacy enshrined in the history books. Today I want to tell you about the future: where we are going, why we must, and how you can be a part of it.
At this moment of history, the need for fiercely creative ideas, empowered artists, and unfettered visionaries seems more critical than ever. Filling this need is our legacy. It’s also our future. We started as a revolutionary movement in creative music. It remains the beating heart as we grow, evolve, and innovate.
What does this innovation look like?
