Dear Colleagues,
We are continuing the Collaborative Piano assignment program this year, in which B. Mus Performance Majors, Post Bacc, Pre-Masters, and Masters students in the Classical Stream can request 8 hours/term with a collaborative piano student, to rehearse and perform. Our expectation is that these hours will be spread evenly throughout the term.
We are eager for our collaborative students to explore varied repertoire with the instrumentalists and singers from the Desautels Faculty of Music. Through these assignments, pianists participate in rehearsals, lessons, and/or master classes. If the soloist requires additional hours or the pianist's participation in a performance, it is their responsibility to make financial arrangements with the collaborative pianist.
To encourage musical growth throughout the year, we recommend that the collaborative pianists attend the soloists' lessons at least once a month. We also recommend that soloists come to the collaborative pianists' lessons and/or Studio Classes periodically. We are both available to team-coach with you if schedules permit.
We have created a Request Form for students/instructors to fill (attached to this e-mail).
The deadline is Tuesday, October 3 at 4:30 pm.
All assignments will be made by Judy and Laura. Please scan this form to both of us or drop it in the envelopes posted outside our offices.
Please feel free to contact either of us with any questions or concerns.
We look forward to your responses.

Hello MPS instructors!
I am reaching out to ask each of you to recommend a handful of pieces for purchase (3 - 5) that you believe the music library should have available for your students. These could be pieces that are part of the central canon of literature for your instrument, or new pieces of value that you would like your students to have access to.
You can make your recommendations by emailing a list to me at Samuel.plato(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Samuel.plato@umanitoba.ca> or by filling out the Recommend a Purchase<https://apps-lib-umanitoba-ca.uml.idm.oclc.org/forms/uml/recommend/index.php> form.
I know the beginning of the semester is busy for everyone, so please don't feel the need to check on whether the library already has a piece or not before recommending it. The aim of this request is to ensure that the music library continues to offer students a robust collection for their performance and study needs, and if we already have the pieces you suggest then we are in a good place and don't necessarily need to add more pieces just for the sake of adding them.
Thank you,
Samuel Plato
