ComMission Possible
The ComMission Possible Project began in 2009 with the commission of Sam Hazo to write Blue and Green Music. The experience was so positive that we have made it a goal to commission a new work every year. At the heart of every commission is the students. The project is designed so that the students play a central role in the concept creation. Here is a look back at each commission:
