“A New 音乐 New College concert is an experience that is created by everyone in the room, together. These events celebrate the creative potential of musicians and audiences, and often break down walls between the two. Building community and knowledge through music is a mission that resonates with the broader mission of the College, and the series couldn’t have grown from any other environment. “
