These images are from 2007, printed materials referencing the concert in Xiamen. This was Michael Palmer's first visit to China as conductor and first public concert there.

As this is being written, Michael is preparing to conduct the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra in a concert this Friday, Nov. 27, 2009. (Friday will arrive many hours earlier to China than to the USA!)

Hi Jonathon,

The best place to begin learning about GSU music scholarships and financial aid is the information page for "prospective students" on the Music School's website: http://www.music.gsu.edu/prospectivestudents.aspx

There are "financial aid" links under both the Undergraduate and Graduate headings, which also include mention of scholarships.... See More

GSU also lists the following scholarships which apply university-wide, and are not limited to a music degree: http://webdb.gsu.edu/scholarships/university_scholarships.cfm

You can also contact the office of the School of Music for help if you cannot find the specific scholarship information which best applies to your plans for study: http://www.music.gsu.edu/contact.aspx
