Baltimore School for the Arts has announced one of its largest partnerships to date with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra (BSO) beginning this academic year. Through this partnership, the organizations will collaborate on several different initiatives that provide BSA students with hands-on mentorship and learning experiences with BSO’s professional artists. BSO’s recently named Music Director Jonathon Heyward, the only black American conductor leading a major U.S. symphony orchestra and just the second in history, and BSA’s Executive Director Rosiland Cauthen, first woman of color to lead the institution, envision a partnership that will pour into the city’s arts industry as a whole.
Enjoy this interview on WYPR where Sheilah Kast converses with BSA’s Executive Director Rosiland Cauthen and BSO’s Music Director Jonathon Heyward about their exciting partnership.
