ONE YEAR ON
|
|
In
December 1999 MAS announced the launch of a new sister company Keyboard
Connection, a self contained part of MAS specialising in keyboard players of
all genres.
|
|
During the space of a year we have more than doubled our client base
and made the service invaluable to many orchestras, companies and
colleges. This, in turn, has
benefited our orchestral clients as we have started to receive calls from
the people we have assisted through Keyboard Connection looking for
orchestral players and have helped many of you establish new and valuable
contacts.
So, if you or your students need an experienced accompanist please
call us on 01306 500033.

You Fill

If you have anything you would like to shout about let the diary service know. This newsletter is sent out to all our
clients and all the fixers we deal with regularly. The size of potential
readership could really get your news heard. Have you recently recorded a
CD that you would like your colleagues to know about or do you simply want
to blow your own trumpet about a recent achievement? Do you know of a
worthwhile event that could do with a promotional boost? Let the diary know
if you have any ideas for the next quarter and we will be happy to discuss
them with you.
