Words from our Alumni

Testimonials

“EAMA is not just an incredible way to solidify and fortify the fundamental techniques of composition and analysis; it fosters a sense of strong community. 


Nico Muhly

Composer

EAMA 1999

”EAMA’s conducting program is the only one that provides well-rounded musical training, focusing not only on gesture, but rather on the most important skills for any conductor (great ears, an ability to hear harmonically on the highest level, and in-depth interpretation and analysis of complicated scores).


Lidiya Yankovskaya

Conductor

EAMA 2006

”The faculty, who were real mentors to us, generously championed our individual voices and styles. 


Robert O’Connor
