Faculty member and pianist, Thomas Rosenkranz recently performed a solo recital as the American representative at the October Musicale Festival in Tunisia. The concert took place at the Acropolium in Carthage and included works by Messiaen, Beethoven, as well as Rosenkranz’s own version of Rhapsody in Blue by Gershwin. This trip was sponsored by the American Embassy of Tunis and included a week of masterclasses at the Higher Institutes of Music in Tunis and at the newly founded Institute in Le Kef.
