A new series of multifaceted music colloquia kicks off at 91¶ÌÊÓÆµ this semester. The series brings in a flutist from the Houston Symphony, a performance psychologist from Juilliard, and a Carnatic musician-turned-neuroscientist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each presentation will be livestreamed at 12:20 p.m. on the department’s Facebook page<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Since everything is virtual, it is a wonderful opportunity to bring many more great artists from around the nation and even around the globe to our students,” said Professor David Berry,<\/strong> director of the music department. “It is not every year that we can bring such a diverse array of top-rate artists and presenters to our students in one semester.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The colloquia will include a mix of students performing for and learning from the guest artists, interviews, and lectures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have found these combined modes of presentation to be very engaging for everyone no matter the spectators’ area of musical specialty,” Berry said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
