The best partners in lockdown are those who make your day more purrfect everytime you see them. Did you know that purring releases endorphins for humans, too? The lowered stress hormones are helpful for healing, lowering blood pressure, and coping with illness.

Music is the mirror of our soul, itself the reflecting pool of our emotions that are fired up by music, and vice versa, ad infinitum. The more we are able to dwell on our emotions, the deeper will be our comprehension of music and of our-selves. - Michel Debost

Currently, we are using electronic devices more than usual, so it is important to take eyes off the screen sometimes. Reading is great to keep our brains engaged, reduce stress and relax.

With music coming back to concert halls in the UK soon, it won’t be much longer until we can enjoy it together again. What do you miss most about live music?

What is #COMMUNICATION?
Communication is how we make our most valuable human connections, and of course it is essential to us as musicians, not only in our world of networking, but also in the context of group music making.

[Quora Flute Quartet @FluteQuora]

During these times, we are feeling a lack of this kind of performance chemistry. However, we hope that we will be able to perform together again soon, and in the meantime make sure to communicate as best you can with those around you!

[Quora Flute Quartet @FluteQuora]

During this lockdown we’ve recognised the importance of taking time out and looking after ourselves.

In order to boost concentration and creativity, Katie has been nurturing her collection of indoor plants.

What is #LEADERSHIP? An ensemble with clear purposes, values, strengths, and priorities works as one leader with a simple mission: let the best idea be selected.

[Quora Flute Quartet @FluteQuora]

We need leaders and ensembles not only to adjust to the changing times, but to lead others in adjusting and adapting too. We need people like you, ready to handle whatever comes next.
