The Friends of Music are a crucial part of encouraging the dreams of the UTSA School of Music students. From annual scholarship support that allows our students to focus on the wonderful opportunities that a vibrant arts community like San Antonio has to offer them, to travel support from study abroad programs to national competitions, your gifts help build the nest for these fledgling ‘Runner musicians!
With your support, we are inviting internationally renowned performing artists and composers to campus each year for multi-day residencies that significantly shape our students’ development. These residencies impact students from every college who perform in our choirs, orchestra, and bands as part of our New Music Festival, giving them opportunities to perform new works commissioned by UTSA from underrepresented composers each year and extend to the wider community through events like the Southwest Guitar Symposium.
