Reviews

In the Orchestra Management Handbook, Travis Newton has performed an extremely valuable service. He has captured a wide range of intelligent thinking about the complex job of managing symphony orchestras in the United States, he has added his own intelligence and synthesized it all in a way that is not only remarkably readable, but useful and practical as well. Anyone interested in orchestra management, or in the health of orchestras in general, should read this book.

Orchestra Management Handbook offers a road map to navigate the specialized management needs of orchestras in challenging times. The information is practical, accessible and comprehensive. Highly recommend!
