You also stated fostering cross-cultural creative collaboration as one of your main priority. But I wonder about shifting this outreach to the demand side: do you envisage any future outreach programs to reach other local communities - potentially from different socio-economic backgrounds? ]]> 2018-04-30 07:38:00 UTC https://padlet.com/Grincheva/Guest_Questions_4/wish/256419990 yuenag https://padlet.com/Grincheva/Guest_Questions_4/wish/256420050 1、I'm really interested in how you choose artists.Have you considered recommend Chinese traditional music or theatre to Australia?

I think there will not be many problems when it comes to the understandings about the meaning and values of some forms of arts and culture like music.

How does your company perform and advertise in Australia, how does it use Australia’s cultural policies or local government support to maximize the company’s revenue?

My question is what is the biggest challenge when you bring overseas artists to Australia and how does Castiglione solve it?

It's good to know that Castiglione intended to engage the Chinese community within the rich culture of performing arts in Australia.

2) In regards to the slide on the presentation, that describes the sort of artists you represent, what is the link, for example between the croatian pianist and Australia?

3) Considering that orchestras put together their season programmes with a year in advance, it must be a challenge to organise an orchestral tour for an artist. Because a soloist usually works on one or two pieces when performing with orchestras during a period, how can you make this fit with the orchestras' interests? 

Thank you :)]]> 2018-04-30 07:55:54 UTC https://padlet.com/Grincheva/Guest_Questions_4/wish/256422836 gearonm https://padlet.com/Grincheva/Guest_Questions_4/wish/256423481 You have said that Castiglione is a small organisation - how many people are involved and in what roles?
