NEWS RELEASE: The award-winning composer, music supervisor, orchestrator, pianist, and educator succeeds Liza Gennaro and will assume the role effective July 1, 2026.
While a majority of the Manhattan School of Music community enjoyed spring break, the Admission Team and MSM faculty welcomed applicants and family members from across the globe to our campus for Audition Week 2026 from February 27 to March 6 — we invited nearly 2,000 talented musicians to audition both on-campus and virtually. We’ve tallied it up, and here’s what this year's auditions looked like by the numbers!
We invite you to read this letter sent to the MSM Community about the upcoming retirement of conductor George Manahan (BM '73, MM '76), Director of MSM Orchestral Activities and Chair of the Conducting Department.
