You might envision a great concert or rehearsal but can you see what it will take to get there? When we plan the concert season foresight helps us see how programs fit together, how pieces flow from one to the next, how the ensemble will grow because of the repertoire and how the audiences will respond to the performances. Foresight guides our rehearsal planning because we must rely on foresight to tell us before the actual rehearsal what problems the musicians will have and how we can rehearse in order that these challenges can be overcome.
