Plan your weekend with our preview of public milestone anniversary events and performances by Chicago Men’s A Capella, Fire Escape Films, Off-Off Campus, and the University Symphony Orchestra (page 23), and go behind the scenes with an interview with Barbara Schubert, USO conductor of 40 years (below). An interview with Barbara Schubert: four decades

holding the baton arts.uchicago.edu | 19 This year marks Barbara Schubert’s 40th anniversary conducting the University Symphony Orchestra. Initially arriving at the University of Chicago as a graduate student, Schubert—now Senior Lecturer in Music, Director of the Performance Program, and Conductor of the University Symphony Orchestra and the New Music Ensemble— ended up taking the reigns of the USO. Not only did she expand the orchestra’s size, scope, repertoire, and reputation, but she also developed a robust performance program for the Department of Music. In celebration of Schubert’s momentous achievements over four decades, Brook Rosini, Assistant Director of Arts Communications, sat down with Schubert to discuss her career trajectory, her vision for the USO’s future, and advice she has for conductors just starting out. 20 | arts.uchicago.edu than itwas 40years ago! question that theUSOisawholelotbetter Symphony usedto be—andthere’s no Chamber Orchestra isbiggerthanthe 18 different ensembles.
