Soovin Kim’s chamber music festival grows A performance at last year’s Lake Champlain Chamber Music Festival. Courtesy Lake Champlain Chamber Music the big news at the Lake Champlain Chamber Music Festival this year is the participation of the East Coast Chamber Orchestra (ECCO).“It’s a fairly dynamic group,” explained violinist Soovin Kim, the festival’s artistic director. “They’re just this living, breathing large organism and it’s a miracle how they play together with such freedom and abandon – that’s what makes them special.”Kim will be the soloist in Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 5 in A major, K. 219, on Sunday at Colchester’s Elley-Long Music Center, when ECCO opens this year’s festival.now in its second year, the festival will present four concerts at Elley-Long Aug. 22-29. Pianist Ignat Solzhenitsyn is returning for his second year, and among the other participants will be cellist Colin Carr, French hornist Eric Ruske, pianist Matan Porat and composer David Ludwig.In addition to the Elley-Long concerts, the festival is presenting myriad mini-concerts throughout the Burlington area, a young composers’ seminar and public master classes.For Kim, the festival marks his return as a native son. Growing up in Plattsburgh, Kim was concertmaster of the Vermont Youth Orchestra. he went on to study at the Cleveland Institute of Music and Philadelphia’s Curtis Institute, where he was a student of Jaime Laredo. at 20, he won Italy’s Paganini International Violin Competition. he was once a young artist at and is now a senior member of Vermont’s Marlboro Music Festival. Living in new York City, he is first violinist of the Johannes String Quartet.ECCO, comprised of 18 strings, was founded in 2001 by a bunch of musical buddies, most of whom met at Marlboro.

“Some of them were in school with me, or at least following me in school,” Kim said. “they kind of grew together musically.”the chamber orchestra is part-time, so the players each have individual careers as soloists, in chamber music or orchestras.“So they have to plan way in advance,” Kim said. “but they have such a great time – they’re all friends with long histories together.”For the Mozart concerto, winds will be added, including French hornist Katie Jordan, also once a member of the VYO and now a student at Curtis. ECCO will also perform two works for strings, Geminiani’s “La Follia” (arr. Wiancko) and Tchaikovsky’s Serenade for Strings, Opus 48.on Wednesday, ECCO will divide into ensembles, performing Ludwig’s “Aigaios”; Dvorak’s Nocturne in B Major, Opus 40; Rossini’s String Sonata No. 1 in G Major; and Brahms’ String Sextet in G major, Opus 36.“that afternoon, they’re doing three short performances downtown,” Kim said. “So there’ll be a big dose of them.”the Friday, Aug. 27, program, “an Evening in Russia” features Sergei Eisenstein’s classic film, “the Battleship Potemkin” with an improvised piano accompaniment by Porat. that will be preceded by Shostakovich’s Piano Trio in e minor, Opus 67, with Solzhenitsyn, Kim and Carr.the final concert, Sunday, Aug. 29, will feature three very diverse works: Brahms’ “Liebeslieder” Waltzes for piano four hands; Beethoven Piano Trio in B-flat Major, Opus 97 “Archduke”; and Gy

I work for a large company at a call center. We take and process calls from employees and private citizens reporting malfunctioning equipment. IP work a 12 hour shift on what they call a "Texas Two Step" schedule. This means that I work a 2 week rotating schedule. If I work on Mon and Tue one week then the next week I have Mon and Tue off. Same with 3 day weekends (Fri, Sat, Sun). We are required to follow specific instructions to process a call and can be disciplined if the exact procedure (flow chart) is not followed. There are several policies in place that I am questioning. This following has been Copied and pasted. The Supervisors log all vacation, holiday, sick, tardy, and other times a Controller is absent from work. Tardiness 1. If you are late, (tardy) for your shift start, your Supervisor will log the date, amount of time, and reason. 2. If the amount of time is small you may be allowed to work late to make it up. 3. If the amount of time is several hours you will be charged vacation or holiday time for it in the same manner as running out of sick time. 4. If you are tardy several times and unable to make up the time by working late and the amount of time reaches ½ day you will be charged vacation or holiday time for it. 5. If the Controller has no vacation or holiday time remaining then the absence will be unpaid 6. Remember chronic and excessive tardiness reflect poorly on your time management skills. Chronic tardiness can not only jeopardize your PMP evaluation but could also jeopardize your continued employment with the [company]. 7. Tardiness disrupts the operations of the Support Center, placing undue added work and stress on your colleges. Early Quits 1. In the event a Controller must leave early or be absent a short period of time for an unexpected reason not due to illness. The amount of time will be logged by the Supervisors and handled in the same manner described for handling tardiness time. 2. Requests to leave early for planned events will not be allowed. If it is a planned event schedule holiday or vacation time. Or swap shifts with another Controller, but remember you are responsible to insure that your absence from the desk during your assigned time is covered. end of copied text Every employee that is under the scope of this "Manual" is an exempt employee. Time sheets are maintained and I have personally been verbally counseled about what time I am logging in to my station (it is tracked electronically) even though all the times were before my actual start time of 1800 but after the required "15 minutes prior to the start of your shift".
