AirTurn is pleased to announce it's new partnership with The New York Summer Music Festival in Oneonta, NY as its official digital music reader and page turning system.
The New York Summer Music Festival is a six-week summer program that challenges every one of its students to achieve their highest levels of musicianship. Over 300 students from across the USA and 10 countries internationally gather each summer to work with conservatory-level instructors from such institutions as:
- Curtis Institute of Music
- The Manhattan School of Music
- The Philadelphia Orchestra
- Schola Cantorum Basiliensis (Basel, Switzerland)
- The Juilliard School
- The New York Pops Orchestra
- The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra
- The Harlem Boys Choir
From Executive Director Jungeun Kim:
NYSMF is proud to offer its students and staff the opportunity to try AirTurn, a wireless hands-free page turner and digital music reader. Designed to let users carry their playlists and libraries wherever they go, AirTurn also allows digital annotation, conversion of paper scores into digital files, and the freedom of effortless page turns. At the Curtis Institute of Music, my colleagues and I have found AirTurn to be extremely useful for rehearsals, master classes and performances.
Most music festivals have to deal with the hassles of distributing borrowed chamber music and orchestra parts, and too many times parts end up damaged or missing. By introducing our faculty and students to digital music reading systems like the AirTurn, I believe it will go a long way towards helping us spend more time teaching and helping the students artistically and less time wasted dealing with the problems of physical music score collections.
