2025 Faculty Gala and Reunion

The School of Music was proud to host the thirty-third annual Faculty Gala on September 12, 2025. This spectacular event is always an opportunity for those who teach on a daily basis to share their passion for performing. The Faculty Gala highlights a multitude of our areas of study, including voice, jazz, brass, strings and piano, among others. Our faculty are committed to their artistry and making the University of Louisville a great place to learn and enjoy music.

The dynamic program included solo and ensemble performances of both classical and contemporary repertoire. Sharing pieces from Bach, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Pergolesi and more, each performance was a chance to witness the dedication to the craft of music. Also found in the program were original pieces written by our very own faculty that were shared on the Comstock Hall stage. 

The annual Faculty Gala is a celebration of music and a showcase of our university community. For a closer look, check out the photography of the event.

“Hosting our faculty gala has proven to be an exciting time to welcome folks into our hall, reconnect with alumni, and showcase the hard work and talent that bleeds from our halls. This is an event that I look forward to yearly. The opportunity to connect with current students and alumni, supporters of the school of music, and the community at large is one of the best parts of my job. Using performance as a medium allows for more depth and perspective in this process.”
