Dean鈥檚 Downbeat

鈥淎s the year sprints to a close, I look forward to ushering in the spirit of the season this weekend at our long-running, much-loved Holiday Festival. I hope to see many of you at Macky Auditorium, enjoying inspired, heart-warming performances featuring our talented students and faculty. Meanwhile, I鈥檓 pleased to share glad tidings: Professor of Conducting Emeritus and Distinguished Professor Allan McMurray was just notified of his selection for the CU Regents鈥� 2023 University Medal!鈥� In the final Dean鈥檚 Downbeat of 2022, learn more about McMurray鈥檚 legacy; how the important, prescient work of the Sphinx Organization reflects the dean鈥檚 vision for the College of Music ... and more.
