“A Festival of the Arts” will celebrate the installation of John Mauceri as chancellor of the North Carolina School of the Arts on Tuesday, April 3.
Fourteen of the 16 campuses of the University of North Carolina will perform at various locations around the campus as part of the installation festivities.
The public is invited to join students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends of NCSA for the festivities, which will begin at 10 a.m. April 3, with the official ceremony on the lawn adjacent to Eisenberg Social Hall, outside the Hanes Student Commons on the NCSA campus, 1533 South Main St., Winston-Salem.
In case of rain, the ceremony will be held in Crawford Hall, in Gray Building on the NCSA campus. Overflow guests will be able to watch on a video screen in Watson Chamber Music Hall in the School of Music Complex. The lunch will be served under tents in Daniels Plaza, but guests will eat inside the Hanes Student Commons.
UNC President Erskine Bowles will preside over the ceremony, which will include greetings from representatives of the NCSA community.
An internationally renowned conductor, John Mauceri is the first full-time artist to become hancellor of the North Carolina School of the Arts in 20 years.
Following the ceremony, guests will visit different performance venues around the campus to experience the artistic disciplines of the participating UNC schools.
At noon, guests will return to the ceremony stage, where the newly installed chancellor will transform into Maestro Mauceri and will conduct the NCSA Symphony Orchestra in Prelude to Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg by Richard Wagner and
Overture to West Side Story by Leonard Bernstein.
After the grand finale, a picnic lunch will be served in Daniels Plaza, outside the Hanes Student Commons, for all in attendance.
