Major Themes/Goals (areas of contemplation) for the 2013-2014 Academic Season:  

- "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." - Attributed to Aristotle.

- We are a Fellowship of the heart that is here for each other in just this way (If we want to sing the greats then we must learn to be like the greats):

- Herbert Howells: On Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry. The original biographer of Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry relates this anecdote from when Sir Charles was Herbert Howell’s teacher. Perhaps you will see the cultivation of excellence within this narrative.

“It was Sir Hubert's way with many of us, when we were students at the R.C.M., to give as much attention to our physical as to our mental condition. He was keen to observe signs of fatigue: so keen, that on one occasion - it was on a Saturday morning at the R.C.M. - he pounced on me with a demand to know why my eyes looked so tired and strained. I told him the simple truth - that I had smashed the only pair of eye-glasses I had in the world. With many a 'God's truth!' and gold coin (which last he stuffed into my hand with a helpful sort of bluster), he ordered me off to Bateman's shop in Kensington High Street to get a new pair. 'No prescription here', I confessed. 'Where is it?' 'Somewhere in a shop in Gloucester,' I told him.

And he dismissed me with an apparently irrelevant invitation to come and see him on Monday afternoon. It was only when Monday came and I obeyed the invitation that I discovered what reference it had to my dilemma. For he promptly produced a brand-new pair of spectacles and bubbled over with pleasure as he put them on my nose with a 'There now! go and finish that blessed piano concerto!' Later from another source I learned of his extraordinary kindness. He had changed his plans for the week-end, had gone down to Gloucester, had called on the optician who possessed the prescription, and by threat or entreaty had prevailed on the good man to have the new glasses ready by Monday morning. He had collected them and brought them up to London. All this to save time and to spare an obscure student a few extra hours' discomfort."

- “We really are a gift that we give to each other - and that begins by showing up for each other each and every week.” MTK  The more we show up, the more the gift we give grows. The more we show up, the more the gift we receive grows.  It is this gift that enables us to sing the greats.

- "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." - Attributed to Aristotle.
