“I learned the raw mechanics of ensemble work and how to methodically build a piece with the musicians as collaborators. This practical aspect was complemented by classes in orchestration, score reading, and musicology, which rounded out my development so that I emerged as a fully professional musician."
—Russell Ger (M.M. ’10, Conducting)
Conservatory music majors may pursue a minor in Africana Studies, to examine in detail how the African diaspora continues to shape the performing arts and cultures around the world.
