At the start of the new academic year here in the UK, some words on the foyer wall of  ANAM in Melbourne seem appropriate. Re training future musical leaders, the Artistic Director writes - 'Musicians who prod, poke and stir the prevailing musical culture out of its sometimes comfortable slumber; musicians who, through their passionate music making, provoke us, agitate us and compel us to visit places that we had not known existed. Sometimes the most magical places were there all along, but we lacked the inclination or courage to go searching, or the willing guide to take us there.'
 
As our musical seasons and teaching get underway once more, here's to a great year - and to having the courage, sometimes, to walk off the map.
