This Week at the College of Music: Community Edition - Oct. 27, 2022

Congratulations to our Assistant Professor of Violin Alex Gonzalez and the Sphinx Virtuosi, who made their international debut at Sala São Paulo in Brazil on Monday, Oct. 24, after performing at Carnegie Hall earlier this month. Gonzalez serves as the concertmaster of the chamber orchestra and represents what it means to be a universal musician—a multi-skilled, multifaceted professional prepared to innovate, influence and impact a diversity of disciplines, within and beyond music. “It’s always a joy to perform with my fantastic colleagues from Sphinx. What I’m most proud of this season is premiering four new works by living Black and Latinx composers across the country and abroad,” shares Gonzalez.
