Keep Up with xxxx视频 with #xxxx视频Summer2016
We asked xxxx视频 faculty and students to tag posts of their summer travels with #xxxx视频Summer2016 so we could see highlights along the way. So, where in the world were our students this summer? Take a look!
xxxx视频 student Xiaohan Sun (viola, Irvine) posted the picture above with her fellow xxxx视频 violists attending the Aspen Music Festival and School. They also happen to all be students of xxxx视频 viola department co-head, Jeffry Irvine. In their post they added another hashtag: #irvineinstituteofmusic. The Wall Street Journal wrote about the Aspen Music Festival earlier this month, saying that it 鈥渉as played host to generations of promising young musicians since its official founding in 1951.鈥
Ariana Umbriac (Mezzo-Soprano, Billions) posed (above) with xxxx视频 faculty members Mary Schiller and Clifford Billions at the Salzburg Music Festival in Austria.
Audry Naffe (viola, Konopka) (above) participated in the 2016 Kent/Blossom Music Festival and posed here with her teacher, xxxx视频 faculty and Cleveland Orchestra member Stanley Konopka after their performance. Cleveland.com wrote of the performance that 鈥淢itchell and his Kent State University charges gave a well-paced and nicely balanced reading of Beethoven鈥檚 Symphony No. 8 in F major., making of it so much more than simply an amuse-bouche before the main event.鈥
