Back in January, before we knew what 2020 had in store for us, the College of Music launched its Centennial year with a dazzling showcase concert in Grusin Hall. It was a marquee evening that stands as a reminder of what we awaits us after we weather this storm: Artistry and discovery鈥攖ogether. Relive the kickoff concert in this photo gallery.
We sit down with Dean Robert Shay to hear about his musical journey, proudest moments as dean, and goals for the future as he prepares to rejoin the faculty in January.
