Mark Rabideau President-Elect of the College Music Society and Director of the 21st-Century Musician Initiative at DePauw University tells us about the commitment of DePauw to connecting their student musicians to musical innovators such as Yo-Yo Ma and Decoda. He tell us the ways in which 21CM meaningfully connects their students to their community including their longstanding partnership with Putnamville Correctional Facilities and how these community programs are building a culture of service through music within DePauw students. Mark and the DePauw team have built a program and culture that supports their musicians to build a creative life of means and meaning.
