Celebrate 25 years of music-making, teaching, presenting, composing, and cultural exchange with Sean Gao, whose journey at the University of Delaware began with the first class he taught at 9 am on September 11, 2001. Joined by an array of inspirational musicians (to be announced in the spring), he leads a chamber music concert that closes our 22nd season with many stories from his quarter-of-a-century UD experience and the enduring power of live music.
