From the Director's Desk
Summer 2017 is one for the books. The class of 432 students was the largest in BUTI's history, and it proved to be an incredibly accomplished group as well.
Take a listen to a few highlights of the season.
We offered more than 100 concerts and community performances in eight short weeks, collaborating with the Tanglewood Music Festival and Boston Landmarks Orchestra on projects including Mendelssohn's Incidental Music to A Midsummer Night's Dream, Tanglewood on Parade, and the Opening Night of the summer Hatch Shell concerts in Boston.
The strong student body was nurtured by leaders in the field. Jamie Barton, Joshua Bell, Lynn Harrell, Nico Muhly, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Morris Robinson, Nadia Sirota, and many others joined the core BUTI faculty to challenge these young artists to explore. To listen. To develop in ways they never dreamed possible.
And with fall around the corner, we're not stopping here. We're back to the drawing board, and we're building for the future. Stay tuned!
With appreciation,
Hilary Field Respass
Executive Director
