Key Takeaways from Aretha Franklin's estate: The lack of a clear Will can lead to family conflict and financial impact. Aretha Franklin’s case serves as a strong example. Without a definitive Will, your estate may face unnecessary legal fees, asset depreciation and tax complications. Seek guidance from an estate planning professional to clarify your estate plan and protect your loved ones.
Aretha Franklin was an icon in the music industry. For her family, Aretha’s passing in 2018 should have been a time to celebrate the artist and mourn her passing. But quickly, a series of estate planning issues emerged that took over the moment. Comerica thought leaders Lisa Featherngill, Andrea Bruce and Steven Zamenski look at the details of Aretha Franklin's estate and lessons we should all take away on the need for a clear Will. https://bit.ly/3WHlhmf 📷: Jan Persson/Redferns/Getty Images #EstatePlanning #ArethaFranklin #Comerica #ComericaWealthManagement #LessonsLearned

Giving back: always important, especially when it aligns with your organisation's values. Coxswain Alliance sponsors a critical learning and development program with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra; the Fellows. This is about nurturing the talent of the future, building capability. Have a listen to how the seasoned players David and Matthew talk about mentoring young and talented players. It is a nuanced approach that offers multiple avenues for building capability. And Matthew's comment goes to the heart of it. It's not just about being a good player; it's also about being a good colleague. Isn't that the truth!
Next month our Fellows take centre-stage in The Splendour of the Baroque, performing alongside members of the Sydney Symphony and directed by acclaimed early music specialist Erin Helyard. As part of the Fellowship program, these young musicians receive mentorship from members of our Orchestra. Here, Principal Trumpet David Elton and Principal Emeritus Bassoon Matthew Wilkie talk about their role as mentors of the Fellowship program, revealing some of the many perks of the program and sharing some insights about this special concert.

A recent post from the Sydney Symphony Orchestra: ‘Do you know why orchestral musicians usually wear black formal wear⁉’ provides the following reasons: ‘In the 18th century, orchestras were usually part of the household staff of famous noble families …The musicians would perform at lavish events and would need to be dressed to match the occasion - and the tradition has stuck with us ever since.’ While I appreciate this is an explainer piece of content designed to give more context to an established convention, doesn’t this rationale provide the perfect reason why orchestras should be more innovative in all aspects of their concert presentation? In general, orchestras hold on to too many rules, conventions and behaviours - when to clap, what the musicians should wear, what the audience should wear, conductors not talking from the stage etc. The traditions, whilst part of the heritage of orchestras, can have the net effect of turning away new audience members. Threshold anxiety is a very real phenomenon for orchestras - uninitiated concertgoers tend to feel inferior and intimidated; consequently, this can contribute to them not going - simple as that; people will, unsurprisingly, avoid feeling uncomfortable and inadequate. Not to say that a sense of occasion and the heritage of the orchestral concert should be thrown away; this is part of the richness and depth of the art form. But - as a sector - can we try and think more proactively about how and why we present our artform in a way that gives as many people as a chance to experience it? At a time when orchestras should be relentlessly building new audiences, we need to break down as many barriers as possible. #culturalleadership #futureorchestras
