Welcome to our 101st Toronto Ravel Study!

TORONTO RAVEL STUDY is back in-person at The Tranzac Club

 

*****************

This Month’s Guest

This month’s guests are all of you! Please come and help us celebrate this milestone. We’d love to see anyone and everyone who has ever been to a Ravel meeting, as well as anyone who would like to check us out for the first time. 

Outside of Los Angeles, Toronto Ravel is the longest-running Ravel study in North America. We have created a wonderful community of musicians and composers, who appreciate the joy of study for its own sake,  and who value gathering with other musicians.

We will have performances by some of our talented members, and a surprise guest.

Please join us!

WE NEED YOU TO RSVP (BY REPLYING TO THIS MAILING) IN ORDER TO ATTEND ON JUNE 6. THIS WILL HELP WITH FOOD ORDERING, ETC.

NEW ADVENTURES IN LISTENING – Film clips from “On The Waterfront” and “Ryan” are posted on the “Study Materials” page for download. With the sound removed, they can be scored as an exercise, and brough in to “Adventures in Listening” for feedback and analysis. Adventures in Listening is a unique opportunity to get unbiased and honest feedback on your ‘in-progress’ or experimental work from a community of your professional peers. Because it is anonymous, it is a risk-free environment.  Whether you are an emerging composer or an experienced one, and whether your work is for concert or screen, I encourage you to take advantage of this invaluable resource.

——–
Many of you are actively performing musicians or are composers with TV shows or films containing your original scores. If you would like me to mention upcoming concerts or showtimes, please see me during the first hour, and I will make the announcement during “Adventures in Listening”. This way we can get the word out while preserving the relaxed and casual atmosphere that we have created at Toronto Ravel.

We need your help. We know that Toronto Ravel is viable, but we need to ensure that it is sustainable. There are 2 ways you can help;  First, by spreading the word to your friends, Facebook friends, colleagues, etc., and by passing around the links to our videos – the links are below. Also – you can volunteer a bit of your time and be part of the Ravel team.  Please email info@torontoravel.com if you can lend a hand.
