Communicating with Your Audience
During Edna’s 23 years as managing director of IMG Artists, she personally looked after the career of violinist, Itzhak Perlman and launched the careers of musicians such as pianists Evgeny Kissin and Lang Lang, violinist Hilary Hahn, and conductors Franz Welser-Mõst and Alan Gilbert.
Edna believes young musicians can grow their own careers, with “hard work, blind faith, passion for the cause, incessant networking and a vision that refuse[s] to be tarnished by naysayers.”

Marblehead School of Ballet Thanks Public During 46th Anniversary With
Community Appreciation Week
(Marblehead, Massachusetts; November 16, 2017) – The Marblehead School of Ballet (MSB) celebrates Community Appreciation Week from Friday, December 1 to Thursday, December 7. During this special week, members of the public are invited to come and try a dance class. Parents and guardians, who are considering dance training and opportunities for their children, are welcome to visit the school.
"The Marblehead School of Ballet has been a part of this community for 46 years. During this special anniversary season, we thank the community for supporting us all these years. Throughout Community Appreciation Week, we welcome newcomers into the Marblehead School of Ballet family," said Paula K. Shiff, Director of MSB.
From December 1 to December 7 exclusively, the MSB provides these special offers to the public. Guests may come and watch a class. A new student may attend any class for only five dollars. Students currently enrolled in the school may bring a friend to class for the special rate of five dollars only during this week. Interested dancers or parents may arrange a complimentary consultation with Ms. Shiff to discuss their dance plans and also learn more about the school's 46-year history.
What can ballet do for you? "Ballet helps keep your mind sharp, as you quickly memorize combinations and then move using them," said Judy Moynihan, a long-term adult ballet student at the school.
New students or guests must pre-register before attending a class. To register or for more information, call the school's office at 781-631-6262. For a class schedule, visit http://marbleheadschoolofballet.com/the-school/schedule/.
