Although geared towards rock/contemporary musicians, KnowTheMusicBiz.com has posted a $52.45 music marketing plan. Some of the techniques on here should follow through to the classical music world.

Hucbald from A Monk’s Musical Musings posted a great practice technique - combining slow practice with forte practice. Go, Read, Use.
And finally, the San Francisco Chronicle posted a really interesting article looking at the “Freelance Freeway” - an area of San Francisco where there are many orchestras, and more freelance players than you can poke a baton at. An interesting insight to the life of a Freelancer.
