The Program aims to enrich the educational experience of conducting students and acknowledge their potential to bring positive influence and change to musical performance at 成人VR视频 and beyond.聽聽

Andrew Hon (DMus鈥�22) will be conducting Considering Matthew Shepard for his doctoral recital.聽This choral work, composed by Craig Hella Johnson (b.1961), is a response to the 1998 anti-gay hate crime against Matthew Shepard, a student at the University of Wyoming who was brutally murdered. The Washington Post wrote that Johnson鈥檚 oratorio, 鈥�Considering Matthew Shepard demonstrates music鈥檚 capacity to encompass, transform and transcend tragedy. Powerfully cathartic, it leads us from horror and grief to a higher understanding of the human condition, enabling us to endure.鈥澛犅�
