La Cieca’s looking for a few good commenters to join the exalted ranks of parterre reviewers of new CD and DVD releases. Care to apply? Read on after the jump.
If you feel you are up to reviewing an average of one new release per month, and you can realistically promise a one-week turnaround on reviews (e.g., you receive the disc on a Monday and you email a review by the following Monday), then let your presence be known by the following procedure:
Write a review of 300-500 words of a recent CD or DVD purchase. It doesn’t have to be a brand new release, but it will help if it’s not something that’s been reviewed to death already (the Decca/Solti Ring, for example). Email the review to [email protected] and La Cieca will take it from there. Please include in your email your username at parterre so La Cieca can byline the review properly if she decides to publish it.
If you’re chosen to be a reviewer, La Cieca will send on a new release for you to write about, again with the reminder that a one-week turnaround is optimum.
La Cieca also solicits reviews of “local” (outside New York) live perfomances.
