December 14, 2022

The bedrock of Boston Conservatory's long legacy of innovation is teaching excellence. Here, faculty and administrative leaders are not only educators-they are also the artists, performers, scholars, and culture makers who are shaping today's performing arts landscape.

The 2022-2023 issue of STAGES examines teaching excellence at Boston Conservatory as the dynamic interplay of key areas: pedagogy and curriculum, research and thought, and performance and professional practice. In four thematic sections-Coursework, Ideas, Practice, and Outcomes-we consider how, as artist-practitioners working across these intersecting areas, our faculty connect students to all that is current in the performing arts, helping them to imagine and define their own pathways for professional success.

Issue highlights:

Breaking Ground through Movement: A look at the new commercial dance program in photos.

A Culture Bearer in the Classroom: Faculty member Maya Cunningham draws on her ethnomusicology scholarship in the new Music in Context course.
