Got Twitter? You should if you want an audience
Hey orchestras and classical music groups, percussionist Thomas Burritt has a message for you.
“@tburritt: Use social and new media if you want to reach today’s new and younger audience that demands transparency, authenticity and accessibility.”
That message is 137 characters, three less than the maximum you can use on Twitter, the social messaging and microblogging service. (Minus tburritt, Burritt’s Twitter name, that is.)
Read more about Burritt’s advocacy of social media.
And don’t forget, Burritt and the UT Percussion Ensemble play a free concert Tuesday night that will feature premieres of new work by Austin composers Graham Reynolds and Dan Welcher as well as Iannis Xenakis monumental work for percussion “Peaux.”
University of Texas Percussion Ensemble
When: 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 14
