Q. Will CutTime create new music jobs for us?
Can CutTime stop the downsizing of orchestras?


A. We live in interesting times, when, among other thorny dilemmas, some classical music institutions are deep in crisis while a few seem as yet immune to cultural climate change. In response CutTime® is creating opportunities to reset and share classical music with curious musical omnivores. Many do want to know what they might be missing without classical music — but not enough to attend traditional concerts. They want and deserve an empathetic guide to help them access this largely wordless music. The time is now to build positive associations for sonatas wherever hungry people go to sample other music.

Wherever we can, CutTime is recruiting musicians to play from our large music catalog in clubs, churches, homes, and schools, and to learn many new ways to connect what is enduring and “universal” in classical music with “real people.”
It is perhaps the only mission-enterprise in the world dedicated to presenting symphonic music so intimately. CutTime may eventually audition musicians, and hire managers and promoters to tour and scale up club
 classical nationwide.
