Our summer music mini-camps are in full swing! 🎶

Led by Dr. David Haas, campers are learning to create and record music in Logic Pro and building skills as they work toward producing their own original tracks and remixes. 🎧✨

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Juan Berríos as Assistant Professor of Horn, effective Fall 2026! 📯 🎉

During his tenure, he has demonstrated a strong commitment to student success and program growth, significantly expanding both horn studio enrollment and ensemble participation.
