Artist in Residence Program
"...to provide an environment that would enrich the synergistic and essential relationship between thought and performance, idea and artistry." - Artist-in-Residence Program mission
The Artist-in-Residence program at the Institute for Advanced Study was established in 1994 to create a musical presence within the Institute community, to have in residence a person whose work could be experienced and appreciated by scholars from all disciplines.
Composer, clarinetist, and conductor Derek Bermel was named Artist-in-Residence beginning July 1, 2009. A press release on his appointment may be viewed here.
