New lakefront Music/Communications Building

<p>This building looks like yet another lovely addition to the magnificent NU campus! It will house all music classes and Theatre/Music/Communications offices, in addition to studios, classrooms and another 400-seat theatre.</p>

<p>Very nice video that speaks to the important role of the new buildings in strengthening Northwestern’s legendary commitment to excellence in the performing arts. They describe the new music/theatre/arts complex as NU’s version of Lincoln Center.</p>

<p>It is especially exciting, in this era of shrinking budgets in so many university MT programs, to see such a huge commitment (including the hiring of 3 new MT voice teachers) to continued strength in NU’s performing arts education. </p>
