The Fred Fox School of Music is proud of UA alumna Heather Mitchell (DMA 2016) for her recent stellar appearance on Carnegie Hall’s stage. As Manhattan Concert Productions’ conductor-in-residence, Dr. Mitchell led the Masterwork Festival Chorus and the NYC Chamber Orchestra in a beautiful performance of Robert Schumann’s Requiem, Op. 148. It’s a work that is vastly unknown, thus Dr. Mitchell is trying to introduce it into the choral/orchestral repertoire. "The concert was unreal!," said Mitchell, "Members of the Desert Skies United Methodist Church (Tucson) sang with us. Alexander Shawn is the director, who is also a UA alum."

More information about Heather Mitchel can be found in the Manhatan Concert Production website:

Fred Fox School of Music alumnus Immanuel Abraham was featured on "Arizona Illustrated" in a segment by Tony Paniagua (Arizona Public Media).

In 2004, when Immanuel Abraham was 14 years old and living in inner-city Chicago, his mother came across a newspaper ad announcing free music lessons. The family looked into it, and Immanuel's life changed forever. He picked up the violin, practiced relentlessly, and was able to attend the universities of Michigan and Arizona where he earned his Doctor of Musical Arts in 2019. He credits music with saving his life.

A fantastic UA Arts moment from this semester...UA Dance Ensemble members Candice Barth, Kara Madden & Hayley Meier, School of Dance faculty member/choreographer Autumn Eckman and harpist/faculty member Michelle Gott from The University of Arizona Fred Fox School of Music perform a collaborative work inspired by De Kooning's "Woman-Ochre." This site-specific dance at The University of Arizona Museum of Art was performed to "Passaggio" by Ludovico Einaudi and integrated the artwork "A Desert Veil: Soft Plants in a Harsh Landscape," by Charles Hedgcock in conjunction with 6&6 Art Installation with Mark A. Dimmitt.
