Today, UConn Concert Choir had the incredible honor of working with Jonas Rasmussen on two of our pieces for our upcoming concert this Sunday. Then, members of UConn Choirs and UConn ACDA attended a Q&A session where Jonas offered insights about his life as an internationally acclaimed conductor, director, composer, and creator.

We are in awe of this unbelievable experience, endless thanks to Jonas for meeting with us via zoom, all the way from Denmark, in spite of the severe time difference!

Our thanks to Dr. Voth for her flexibility with these most valuable final rehearsals before our concert, and endless thanks to our ACDA board and advisors who have helped this happen.

The most special part of the Envision conference was surprising our very own Dr. Spillane with an award created in his honor. He’s the most deserving person to receive this award and we’re so honored to have given this to him! Thank you to ACDA EAST for your work in the creation of this award and to all those involved in the special moment of presenting it. Dr. Spillane’s accomplishments within ACDA are countless, and his impact is always accompanied by his huge heart and vibrant smile!! We love you and are so blessed to have you!! 💙
