A Message from the President

Welcome to the Conservatory at Longy! At Longy, we are dedicated to the concept that accomplishment must not be divorced from the person - that musical education must engage the entire individual, going beyond training of hands or vocal cords. At Longy, your study is guided by an exceptional faculty, dedicated to the art of teaching and to your individual growth as a performer, teacher, creative being, and thinking musician. Here you will be challenged to reach beyond your highest artistic goals and encouraged to consider how you intend to transform the world.

We hope that you will consider joining us at Longy, a school small and excellent, and a place where you can make a difference.

Karen Zorn, President
