Dear Singers,
A ‘VIRTUAL’ CASOLE 2020
I am determined that some music making will happen this summer. I will devise a new online course. Some music will work better than others in this medium and we’ll all be better at using what is available by then. I’ll aim to give some coaching online, maybe in sectionals to cover any challenging bits, and as usual to give you some background details. Individual singing lessons can also be set up. We can then record our individual parts at home and I will get them put together. It will be a unique memento of these times and it will give all alumni a chance to take part. It will be a celebration of music and friendship and Casole Memories.

It's easy to get started creating your website. Knowing some of the basics will help.
A content management system is software that allows you to create and manage webpages easily by separating the creation of your content from the mechanics required to present it on the web.
In this site, the content is stored in a database. The look and feel are created by a template. Joomla! brings together the template and your content to create web pages.
To login to your site use the user name and password that were created as part of the installation process. Once logged-in you will be able to create and edit articles and modify some settings.
Once you are logged-in, a new menu will be visible. To create a new article, click on the "Submit Article" link on that menu.
The new article interface gives you a lot of options, but all you need to do is add a title and put something in the content area. To make it easy to find, set the state to published.
The look and feel of your site is controlled by a template. You can change the site name, background colour, highlights colour and more by editing the template settings. Click the "Template Settings" in the user menu.
The boxes around the main content of the site are called modules. You can modify modules on the current page by moving your cursor to the module and clicking the edit link. Always be sure to save and close any module you edit.
You can change some site settings such as the site name and description by clicking on the "Site Settings" link.
More advanced options for templates, site settings, modules, and more are available in the site administrator.
Your site actually has two separate sites. The site (also called the front end) is what visitors to your site will see. The administrator (also called the back end) is only used by people managing your site. You can access the administrator by clicking the "Site Administrator" link on the "User Menu" menu (visible once you login) or by adding /administrator to the end of your domain name. The same user name and password are used for both sites.
There is much more to learn about how to use Joomla! to create the website you envision. You can learn much more at the Joomla! documentation site and on the Joomla! forums.
Dear Verrocchio Artists,
The COVID-19 situation has put us all in a most uncertain predicament. We are planning to go ahead with courses as and when it is permissible from the standpoint of official advice from national governments. If you are possibly able to claim on insurance in the event your holiday has to be abandoned we will be most grateful as that is our best chance of keeping the business afloat in this virus-plagued year. Our Terms and Conditions are here if you want to check and cross check with your insurers. We will do all possible from our side to help provide paperwork for any claims that may arise from cancellation due to Force Majeure or travel disruption. I know it is a hassle that no one would want, but for the sake of the tutors and institutions that have received course fees and of the Verrocchio Art Centre itself we would be most grateful if, where possible, clients could pursue insurance rather than cancelling in anticipation. Of course this request applies to those who had arranged adequate insurance at the time of booking. Some tutors are offering some exciting alternative options to those who would enjoy the camaraderie of group tuition or the support and guidance of one to one tuition while we are all under 'lock down'.

Much appreciation for your support in this.
Our very best wishes to everyone. Please keep well,
The Verrocchio Team
