Faculty and Guest Artists
for 2010-11

For over a century, Wittenberg's music programs have provided training and educational opportunities to prepare students for fulfilling careers in performance, education, church music, and related fields. Wittenberg has been a member of the National Association of Schools of Music since 1931, and its graduates have achieved both national and international recognition as professional musicians. At Wittenberg, music is for everyone, and students majoring in the sciences and humanities regularly benefit from the wide array of musical opportunities available, just as Wittenberg music majors benefit from pursuing their specialized studies within the context of a liberal arts environment. Part of our commitment to musical excellence is providing a series of concerts by Guest and Faculty Artists of national and international distinction, and we are pleased to announce our series for 2010-11. The program for each concert may be obtained (as soon as it is announced) by clicking on the artist's photo.
