Arguably, the most elite classical music institutions of today are no longer the opera houses and symphony orchestras found in large metropolitan areas. Music “academies,” “Hochschulen” and even “colleges” and “universities” have grown in relevance throughout the current and previous century. Join Professor Arthur Fagen (Indiana University Bloomington), Alexander Fritze and Professor Niels Muus (Music and Arts University of the City of Vienna) at a roundtable discussion about these highly competitive schools, their pros and cons and significance to the classical music industry. Yes: our guests not only can and do, they also teach!
