In the latter half of the twentieth century, the School of Music extended its influence and invitation to the finest musicians worldwide, seeking students of extraordinary artistic and intellectual talent to pursue their advanced musical studies with its illustrious faculty. These students and fac- ulty contribute to and benefit from the international distinction of Yale University, which not only cherishes its academic heritage but also places great value on all of the fine arts. Yale is renowned for its array of libraries, art galleries, historical collections, and the- atrical presentations, and for its rich concert life. The eleven other professional schools at the University, the Graduate School, and Yale College itself contribute to the vibrant social and educational environment.

While Yale has virtually inexhaustible cultural resources, its close proximity to New York and Boston broadens the possibilities for an enhanced student experience.

The faculty and sta≠ of the Yale School of Music wish you much success in your time here and in your musical pursuits.
