UK Commemorates 70 Years of Integration
By Jenny Wells-Hosley
One man. One courageous step. Seventy years of a journey that is still unfolding and evolving.
In 1949, Lyman T. Johnson became the first African American to enroll at the University of Kentucky, resulting in the first racially integrated class. It was, by all accounts, a wrenching path.
But 30 years later, Johnson was awarded an honorary doctorate from UK.
Collaborative Piano Literature 1
A survey of significant repertoire for wind and brass instruments with piano. The focus is on music for collaborative duo (instrument and piano) and will include sonata repertoire, important concerti, music of the Paris Conservatoire, and character pieces. This course will provide a practical approach to the repertoire by discussing rehearsal techniques, collaborative considerations, as well as having in-class performances. Topics will include orchestral reductions of standard concerti, preferred editions, misprints and errata in published scores, as well as performance tradition.

400 Years Since Slavery Began: 'History is Full of Beginnings, the Present can be one too'
By Lindsey Piercy
Today we reflect on a grim chapter in our nation's history — the beginning of a 400-year story filled with tragedy, inequality, resilience and survival.
On Aug. 20, 1619, a ship carrying 20 enslaved Africans arrived in Jamestown, Virginia, changing the course of American history. These men and women were among more than 12 million other captives to be sold to colonists in what would become the United States.
