The School of Music is pleased to present the Jacobsen Series faculty recitals broadcast via Schneebeck LIVE this fall. Typically, Jacobsen concerts require tickets, however, due to the pandemic and restrictions on in-person events, we invite all to enjoy these inspiring performances free of charge.
