This year’s Montage series coincides with the openingcelebrations of Loyola University New Orleans’centennial. To mark this important occasion, we havechosen as our College’s theme the crucial role of the

arts in the Jesuit educational tradition. From our first events in September throughthe end of the academic year, we will bring the greater New Orleans communitydozens of outstanding performances, exhibitions, lectures, and masterclasses.Whether you are a lover of music, theatre, dance, or the visual arts, you will findsomething special in this year’s Montage calendar.

The Jesuits have been using the arts as a vehicle for educational enlightenment sincethe sixteenth century. Loyola’s College of Music and Fine Arts continues this tradition,which we will showcase during this year’s Montage season not only in our artisticproductions, but also in our educational events. Along with offering our usual array ofexciting musical performances, theatrical and dance productions, and artisticexhibits, we have slated a robust schedule of special lectures and other activities thathighlight our distinguished music therapy and education programs.

Through a special grant from the Louis Armstrong Educational Foundation, we willexpand our spring Jazz Festival, which will include participation by local schools andartists. Our Invitational Band Festival will feature Loyola’s nationally known wind-ensemble, and conclude with a final grand concert where talented high schoolmusicians from around Louisiana and beyond join forces with our gifted students. We will increase our outreach to young actors and actresses in our unique“Celebrating the Stage” program for the youth of this area, and also the special workof our faculty and visiting artists in their efforts to educate young musicians, actors,dancers, and artists.

Please join us again this year—I look forward to seeing you at Montage!

Sincerely,

Donald R. Boomgaarden, Ph.D.Dean, College of Music and Fine ArtsDavid P. Swanzy Distinguished Professor of Music

DEAR LOYOLA ALUMNI,PARENTS, AND FRIENDS,

The Jesuit EducationalTradition and the ArtsLast year’s Montage theme, thecommemoration of the arrival of theJesuits to New France in 1610,allowed us to bring a number ofremarkable and well received eventsto campus. This year’s theme featuresa year-long celebration of the Jesuiteducational tradition and the arts.Very Reverend Adolfo Nicolás, S.J.,Superior General of the Society ofJesus, has spoken eloquently on thechallenge of encouraging our youngpeople to develop their creativity andlove of beauty. He noted that a Jesuiteducation today must promote depthof thought and imagination,particularly because we live in aworld marked by an overuse andoverreliance on technology:

“The globalization of superficialitychallenges Jesuit higher educationto promote in creative new ways thedepth of thought and imaginationthat are distinguishing marks of theIgnatian tradition.”

The College of Music and Fine Artswill strive in 2011-2012 to highlight ourspecial efforts to meet the criticalchallenges which Very ReverendAdolfo Nicolás, S.J. mentions above. Our work to promote values, justice,intellectual excellence, and creativethought will be showcased not only inour artistic productions, but also inour educational events.

A Brief Overview of the Loyola University New OrleansCollege of Music and Fine ArtsDr. Ernest E. Schuyten, a violinist and former conductor of the New Orleans SymphonyOrchestra, founded the New Orleans Conservatory of Music and Dramatic Art in 1919. TheNew Orleans Conservatory, whose faculty members came from the New Orleans Symphonyand other artistic institutions in the city, merged with Loyola University, and in September of1932, became the College of Music. After Hurricane Katrina, two departments previouslyhoused in the Loyola’s College of Arts and Sciences—theatre and visual arts—were added tothe College of Music, creating the current College of Music and Fine Arts. It is the onlycollege of the performing and visual arts of the 28 Jesuit colleges and universities in theUnited States. It has become a dynamic force in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region. Thecollege employs more than 60 full-time faculty members and a large number of part-timefaculty members, and includes 450 student music majors and nearly 200 majors in visualarts and theatre. Our graduates work in major orchestras, opera houses, ballet companies,recording and publishing companies, theaters, and art galleries throughout the world.
