The Home of Creative Research Artists thrive in unexpected circumstances.
It is in these moments when new doors open, the old is made new, perspectives reframe.
Performers, photographers, conductors, and teachers find beauty in the forgotten, work in concert to achieve positive social change, and discover their classrooms on the stage, in the gallery, on the sidewalk, with each other. In this issue, read about the artists who invigorated a forgotten rural town with music; see how actors and artistic directors make the most of a peculiar, overlooked studio to bring the Cabaret to Comm Ave; meet a new conductor eager to inspire and be inspired by BU Orchestras; challenge the expected order with music educators and visiting artists. Take a page from CFA’s book and turn the predictable on its head. See where it takes you.
