The North Carolina School of the Arts
School of Music will engage in a series of Internet 2 sessions to perform,
collaborate, discuss and exchange ideas. Internet 2 is a new high-speed
Internet system allowing high quality real-time audio-visual interaction
between people at any Internet 2 location in the world. This year’s sessions will include
collaborations with Manhattan School of Music, New World Symphony, North
Western University and the University of Michigan. This project involves the North
Carolina School of the Arts students, faculty and community in one of the
most innovative trends in the performing arts. It connects participants,
including students and alumni, to their profession and supports the
professional development of all involved. The project holds the potential for
developing leadership and entrepreneurial prospects in the arts by offering
the forum to other institutions. Please contact Dr. Michael S.
Rothkopf, Assistant Dean of Graduate Programs at the North Carolina School of
the Arts if you are interested in participating. Violin Orchestral Repertoire with Lisa Kim March 27, 2007 4:00-6:00 pm Eastern Standard Time Lisa Kim,
violinist with the New York Philharmonic and faculty at the Manhattan School
of Music will give a masterclass on orchestral violin repertoire. Understanding
Performance Anxiety
April 10, 2007 1:30-3:00 pm Eastern Daylight Time This
interactive session will explore the causes and effects of performance
anxiety, and then offer strategies that participants can immediately put to
use to advance their performing abilities. Psychologist
and musician Julie Jaffee Nagel, Ph.D., will explain why
talent, hard work, trying harder, and being smart are not “solutions” for
performance anxiety. She will illustrate how anxiety can work in a way that is
helpful and also talk about why performance anxiety may develop and become
chronically frightening and inhibiting. Dr. Nagel will share numerous
experiences from her own performing years as a pianist as well as vignettes
from individuals she has worked with in her clinical practice. She will offer
ideas for better understanding the origins of performance anxiety and better
managing it. Guitarist
and professor Gerald Klickstein, M.M., will present practical,
compassionate frameworks for grasping the nature of stage fright and for
building performance expertise. Using a skills-based approach, he will
describe the five facets of concert preparation and spell out seven key
performance-enhancing techniques. He will discuss backstage rituals, on-stage
tactics and post-performance routines that allow musicians take command of
their performances and celebrate their roles as performing artists. Julie Jaffee Nagel, Ph.D., is well acquainted with
performance anxiety and the relationship between music and the mind from her
personal, therapeutic, and educational experiences. She graduated from The
Juilliard School with two degrees in piano performance, and then, after many
years performing and teaching, but always baffled by her own stage fright,
she entered The University of Michigan to earn her MSW and Ph.D. in
psychology and social work. Subsequently, she trained to become a
psychoanalyst at the Michigan Psychoanalytic Institute. In addition to her
clinical private practice in Ann Arbor, Michigan, she has shared her hybrid
work with audiences of all ages and experience levels. She has published
widely in both scholarly and popular journals. For more information on Dr. Nagel’s work please visit www.julienagel.net. Gerald Klickstein, M.M., is Professor of Music at the North
Carolina School of the Arts (NCSA) and an active classical guitarist and
music performance educator. He frequently lectures at national music
conferences and appears at numerous American music schools and festivals
where he performs, teaches and directs workshops dealing with practice
methods, musicians’ wellness and the development of performance skills.
Prior to his appointment at NCSA, he taught on the music faculties of the
University of Texas at San Antonio, Michigan State University and Lansing
Community College. His writings and musical arrangements are distributed
internationally by a variety of publishers. New World Symphony: Professional
