Guest Composer Lessons, 2011-2012
During 2011-2012, a number of composers will be visiting the Jacobs School of Music and have agreed to spend three hours in semi-private meetings with our students, critiquing work and having discussions. Each lesson will take place in MU333 (Professor Dzubay's Office). Three students are sharing each time slot, the exception being 10/18 with Leone. You are asked to bring one completed work (both score and recording) to the meeting, where about 30 minutes will be devoted to your music. All three composers should stay the whole 90 minutes to take advantage of the insights offered by the guest.
Our thanks to the Student Composers Association, the Department of Bands, and the Latin American Music Center for helping to bring in these guests!
