A new chapter begins for Dr. Danko Druško, Director of Orchestral Studies and conductor for @thechapmanorchestra , who recently signed to @pura_musica_artists , a boutique global agency representing classical musicians 🎵
This is a defining strength of CoPA—faculty who are active, represented, and working artists. Druško’s international professional representation ensures that students learn from a conductor whose work is being shaped by current industry practices and professional networks beyond campus.

We asked Tim Healy, a senior double majoring in Trumpet Performance and Mathematics, to give us a glimpse into how he balances both areas of study 🎺📐
When asked about the surprising benefits of declaring two majors, Tim said that it not only helps him stay balanced, but also allows him to approach each discipline "with a fresh perspective."
