Keeping the Music Playing (Virtually), until the Curtain Rises Again

During this time of uncertainty, music is necessary to soothe the soul, inspire and bring joy to the heart. Music brings us together, even when we need to be far apart. In that spirit, the Frost School of Music is keeping the music playing in a variety of ways until the curtain rises again.
