Workshops
Over the years, TDU has been invited to give workshops and presentations by many educational and civic institutions, including Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute, the Juilliard School, the Kennedy Center, Harvard University, NYC Arts in Education Roundtable, the Metropolitan State University of Denver, Erie Arts and Culture New Horizons, and more. We focus on how classical music can be used to engage our communities and drive them towards creating meaningful action and impact.
Our most recent modules include:
Researching, presenting, and teaching inclusive repertoire
Reinvigorating community engagement initiatives
How social justice can show up in artistic practice
