CSS Connects
CSS Connects (previously known as CSS Presents) is a platform for CSS composers to share their expertise in various areas with each other and with members of the public. Our diverse membership consists not only of composers whose experience and expertise span across many different genres and styles of music, but also of conductors, performers, music educators, music theorists, musicologists, arts administrators, and artists from other disciplines.
Through these workshops, we hope to provide members of the community and beyond with not just the opportunity to gain exposure or deepen their craft, but also to connect with and engage in creative exchange with other professionals.
