The Opportunity Manhattan School of Music (MSM), internationally renowned for the excellence and breadth of its conservatory programs, seeks a Dean of Enrollment Management to join a vibrant leadership team at one of the world’s preeminent, independent conservatories. Working directly and closely with Executive Vice President and Provost Joyce Griggs, the Dean of Enrollment Management will be a proactive and collaborative leader in moving MSM forward as a center of excellence in classical music, jazz, and musical theatre. The successful candidate will lead a dynamic, energetic, and dedicated enrollment management team that consists of the Offices of Admissions, Financial Aid, the Registrar, and International Students. This group works seamlessly to create a comprehensive and coordinated enrollment strategy that includes recruiting and advising prospective students as well as matriculating and retaining students through the successful completion of their diploma/degree. As such, the Dean of Enrollment Management will have a deep understanding and demonstrable experience with strategic enrollment planning within the framework of a highly diverse, arts-focused institution. The Dean will create and support robust recruitment and retention plans that meet financial and programmatic needs within the context of higher education. In addition, the Dean of Enrollment Management leads comprehensive planning and strategic initiatives in support of recruiting, matriculating, retaining, and graduating students, within the customary timeframe, to degree. The Dean works closely with MSM faculty leadership to identify and matriculate qualified students and directs distribution of institutional and federal financial aid, while also seeking to retain balanced enrollments by developing and shaping scholarship strategy (and managing the scholarship budget as set through annual fiscal planning). As part of the recruitment effort, the Dean establishes and fosters relationships with external and internal colleagues who will actively recommend Manhattan School of Music to degree-seeking music students. Utilizing data maintained by the Office of the Registrar, International Student Services, and Admissions, the Dean forecasts enrollment and maintains up-to-date student enrollment details. As a key member of the leadership at MSM, the Dean of Enrollment Management will evaluate changing trends in higher education and MSM enrollment and work closely with the Executive Vice President and Provost (“EVP/Provost”) to identify opportunities for balancing enrollment needs, and where applicable, areas of growth. The Dean of Enrollment Management is a member of the Provost’s Council, comprised of six deans who lead academic affairs, student affairs, performance and production operations, enrollment management, distance learning and recording arts, and the Precollege Division. The Dean is also a member of the President’s Council, which consists of the President, Vice Presidents, Deans, Chief of Staff, and Director of Facilities and Campus Safety. The successful candidate joins MSM at an exciting time as we enter our second century and begin to execute our newly established strategic plan (2019–24), one that focuses on preparing students to engage with the arts and realize a life that contributes to a vibrant society. MSM deeply values and practices a culture of collegiality and collaboration with faculty and staff.

Manhattan School of Music: An Overview Manhattan School of Music is a remarkable institution with a century-long history of extraordinary success. From its beginnings as a small settlement music school, MSM has become an internationally recognized conservatory and leading force in professional music education. The largest independent conservatory in the nation offering training in classical music, jazz, and musical theatre, MSM has upheld its tradition of excellence in music education throughout its history. The School celebrated its milestone centennial year during the 2018/19 academic year with a diverse, season-long program of performances and events, including a special performance by students, faculty, and distinguished alumni that hailed the opening of a grand new campus entrance and the reopening of MSM’s renovated principal performance space, NeidorffKarpati Hall, and a climactic Gala Centennial Performance at Carnegie Hall (led by Distinguished Visiting Artist Maestro Leonard Slatkin and hosted by actor Alec Baldwin). One hundred years prior to these celebrations, what would become Manhattan School of Music was founded by pianist, social worker, and philanthropist Janet D. Schenck. Originally called the Neighborhood Music School, it was located on East 105th Street and tasked with bringing high-quality musical training to the immigrant communities of the surrounding neighborhoods. By re-establishing the musical communities that had existed in these immigrants’ home countries, Schenck hoped to further the nascent cause of music education in America. By 1928, enrollment at the School had reached 400 students. Under additional artistic guidance from renowned artists such as Pablo Casals, Harold Bauer, and Fritz Kreisler, the Neighborhood Music School erected a new building and, in 1938, changed its name to Manhattan School of Music. In its first two decades, the School had built a national reputation. By 1943, the School offered the Bachelor’s degree, and advanced degree programs soon followed. Now home to 970 students—who come from more than 50 countries and nearly every state—MSM fosters a supportive atmosphere, valuing individuals and welcoming creative exploration, and provides the training to attain the highest standards of performance. MSM’s rigorous curriculum and superb artist-faculty, who continue their own creative explorations at some of this country’s most prestigious institutions, give students the artistic experience and the technical foundation to succeed in the highly competitive world of the arts. Exchange programs, distance learning, and entrepreneurial opportunities further expand the School’s breadth, depth, and reach. Offering more than 800 concerts, recitals, master classes, and community events each year, MSM is a vigorous contributor to the cultural fabric of New York City. 3


PROGRAMS Manhattan School of Music offers the Bachelor of Music (BM) and the Master of Music (MM) degree in Voice, Instrumental Performance, Jazz, Composition, and Musical Theatre (the latter is BM only). A Master of Music degree is also offered in Conducting, Collaborative Piano, Orchestral Performance, and Contemporary Performance. The Pinchas Zukerman Performance Program accepts a small number of exceptionally talented violin and viola students at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The dual degree program in Music Education and Performance offers an MM from Manhattan School of Music and an MA in Music Education with K–12 Music Teacher Certification from Teachers College Columbia University. For undergraduates, a partnership with Barnard College also offers expansive possibilities for elective courses. Beyond the Master’s degree, MSM offers a Professional Studies Certificate and a Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA) in Voice, Instrumental Performance, Jazz, Composition, Conducting, and Collaborative Piano. Exceptional students may audition for the highly selective Artist Diploma Program. In the fall of 2016, MSM launched its undergraduate program in Musical Theatre. Now in its fourth year, it is already one of the most selective programs at the School, with its inaugural class set to graduate in May 2020. Bebe Neuwirth serves as the program’s Artistic Advisor. Manhattan School of Music’s Precollege Division, providing pre-professional training to musically gifted young people, is considered to be one of the strongest precollege programs in the country. This full-day Saturday program enrolls 475 students ranging in age from 5 to 18.

FACULTY The outstanding 200-member studio faculty includes musicians from New York’s leading performing institutions, including the New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera, Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra, and Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, along with internationally acclaimed solo, chamber, jazz, and Broadway artists. The academic (classroom) faculty members are scholars, writers, and practitioners in music theory, musicology, and the humanities and social sciences. 4

Another 100 artist-faculty members teach in the Precollege Division.

CAMPUS Since 1969, Manhattan School of Music has been located at Broadway and 122nd Street. As part of New York’s Morningside Heights/West Harlem academic community, it includes among its neighbors in the “academic acropolis” Columbia University, Barnard College, Columbia Teachers College, Bank Street College, Union and Jewish Theological seminaries, Riverside Church, International House, and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Manhattan School of Music’s campus consists of three buildings, constructed in 1910, 1931 (by Shreve, Lamb and Harmon, the architects who designed the Empire State Building), and 2001 (the 19-story Andersen Residence Hall, which houses approximately 500 students in addition to performance spaces and practice rooms). In November 2018 as part of the realization of MSM’s ambitious Centennial Project, the School opened a stunning new entrance on Claremont Avenue – the entrance had previously been located on West 122nd Street – with an expanded entryway and two new entry lounges, and re-opened the School’s principal performance space, NeidorffKarpati Hall, which had undergone a sweeping $15-million, 16-month renovation. The Hall’s lower lounge, an Art Deco gem dating to the original hall’s opening in the early 1930s, is currently undergoing a $1.2-million restoration and will re-open in January 2020. The School has nine performance spaces, ranging from 25 to 650 seats, and a state-of-the-art recording studio. The Peter Jay Sharp Library and the Evelyn Sharp Performance Library contain scores, books, periodicals, audiovisual recordings, on-demand streaming of concerts, and a large range of performance materials. 5


With the Distance Learning Program, the first of its kind at a major international conservatory, Manhattan School of Music maintains a leadership role in the use of technology for music performance and education. In the nearly two and a half decades since its inception, using state-of-the-art interactive videoconference technology to enhance the curriculum and learning experience for MSM students, the School has developed increasingly effective means of connecting students, educators, and distinguished artists around the globe. Its higher education partnerships span from Austria to Australia and have connected to five continents to exchange artistic resources and provide a truly global music education. The program’s educational exchange distance learning partnerships in 47 states and 23 countries reach 10,000 domestic and international learners outside the MSM Community each year. Additionally, the program provides live-streamed concerts and master classes, featuring MSM student ensembles, acclaimed faculty, and guest artists, which now attract a worldwide audience. The program is greatly enhanced by the participation of artists such as Pinchas Zukerman, Thomas Hampson, Glenn Dicterow, and many other MSM faculty members. In addition the $15-million Centennial Project detailed above, MSM has in recent years invested more than $20 million in campus improvements, including creating 28 new Wenger SoundLok practice rooms; two new acting/dance studios; newly renovated offices for classroom faculty; a new HVAC system and complete LED replacement of all lights in the 1910 and 1931 buildings; and a complete cafeteria renovation. The Centennial Project itself was made possible by an anchor gift by trustee Noémi Karpati Neidorff (BM ’70; MM ’72) and Michael Neidorff, a grant from the City of New York, and the generous support of members of the Board of Trustees, the International Advisory Board, faculty, staff, and alumni.

Mission Statement Manhattan School of Music is deeply committed to excellence in education, performance, and creative activity; to the humanity of the School’s environment; to preparing all our students to find their success; and to the cultural enrichment of the larger community. A premier international conservatory, MSM inspires and empowers highly talented individuals to realize their potential. We take full advantage of New York’s abundant learning and performance opportunities, preparing our students to be accomplished and passionate performers, composers and teachers, and imaginative, effective contributors to the arts and society.

Strategic Plan 2019–24 MSM’s centennial year also encompassed a broad-based strategic planning process in anticipation of the completion of the 2014–19 Strategic Plan, the planning for which had been one of President Gandre’s first initiatives upon joining the institution in 2013. The new Strategic Plan, which was approved by the Board of Trustees in spring 2019, involved all sectors of the MSM community: students, faculty, staff, and trustees. Rooted in the institution’s history and its singular role in music education in this city and beyond, the plan was intended to articulate a vision, identify MSM’s goals, and set a clear course for the next five years. The resulting plan identified four strategic priorities and concurrent specific initiatives that would lay the foundation for the School’s second 100 years.

FOUR STRATEGIC GOALS Goal 1: Ensure artistic and academic excellence. • Create time and space for academic and artistic curiosity. • Develop and recruit faculty to support our students. • Design and strengthen pathways to enhance students’ training and experiences.

Goal 2: Optimize our human, financial, and physical resources to improve student experience. • Optimize MSM’s resources to enhance efficiency and increase the academic and performance opportunities available to students. • Develop and invest in our faculty and staff to improve the quality of the education and services MSM offers. • Ensure that our costs by function are aligned to the opportunities and responsibilities of our students, faculty, and staff.

7


Goal 3: Enhance our long-term fiscal well-being. • Grow earned revenue from partnerships, strategic alliances, and other opportunities, including degree and nondegree offerings. • Strengthen connections to alumni, parents, artists, audiences, and the many other friends and benefactors of the institution. • Source and execute initiatives that reduce and mitigate costs.

Goal 4: Increase our visibility and recognition. • Leverage the communications potential of the wider MSM Community, including alumni, current students, faculty, and staff. • Ensure a powerful integrated vision for MSM communications across all media. • Expand off-site performance and presentation opportunities.

Fulfilling the Mission Manhattan School of Music has been at the forefront of innovation and creativity in its degree offerings for 50 years. In the 1970s it was one of only several colleges in the nation to have an Office of Career Planning targeted at music students. In the 1980s MSM was the first independent conservatory to offer jazz degrees. In the 1990s the School founded two renowned programs: the graduate Orchestral Performance Program and the Distance Learning Program. In this century, MSM launched the Center for Music Entrepreneurship, expanding the reach of its offerings to prepare students professionally; created the graduate Contemporary Performance Program; and in 2016 launched a Bachelor’s program in musical theatre, the only such program at an American independent conservatory. Future plans include an online degree program, which will be launched in 2021. Throughout the year, MSM brings nearly 100 acclaimed artists and conductors to campus — both in person and via distance learning — for master classes and to work with the School’s student ensembles. Past and current master class artists include Thomas Hampson, Denyce Graves, Stephanie Blythe, Sir Thomas Allen (voice); Robert McDonald and Richard Goode (piano); members of the New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, The Cleveland Orchestra, Royal Concertgebouw, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, London Symphony, Philadelphia Orchestra, Orchestre de Paris, Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra, Boston Symphony, and Pittsburgh Symphony; Barry Harris, Joe Lovano, Christian Scott, Maria Schneider, and Sean Jones (jazz); performers Bebe Neuwirth, Joanna Gleason, Victoria Clark, and Joan Lader (musical theatre); and Koichiro Harada and Anton Nel (chamber music), among many others. Among the School’s other unique offerings, MSM’s Study Abroad program gives upperclassmen and first-year graduate students the opportunity to spend one or two semesters abroad earning credits at any of the School’s nine partner conservatories in Amsterdam, Beijing, Copenhagen, Helsinki, London, Oslo, Paris, Shanghai, and Stuttgart. 8


MSM has developed a variety of strategic alliances with educational agencies and has created model music education partnerships not only with New York City public schools, but in communities nationwide. The School’s extensive outreach activities prepare students to be effective artist-educators through pedagogical instruction and practical teaching experience. Students are also given the opportunity to present inspirational and interactive performances to diverse and underserved communities. The School has in recent years forged new alliances with other arts and educational institutions, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Harlem Stage, Jazz at Lincoln Center, Orchestra of St. Luke’s, National Sawdust, American Ballet Theater, other peer independent American conservatories, and its neighbors in Morningside Heights. Manhattan School of Music’s summer offerings include “MSM Summer,” a program with 125 students ranging in age from 8 to 17, and a Summer English Study program that has enabled MSM to help international students strengthen acquisition of written and verbal communication skills before they begin their formal degree study during the fall semester. Finally, in 2019–20, as part of the institution’s commitment to a second century full of promise, MSM formally launched a Cultural Inclusion Initiative that will assess the School’s current environment and strive to improve and lead on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The Future Manhattan School of Music is an impressive and highly specialized niche institution. The School is financially sound and stable. As momentum builds and its reputation for excellence deepens, new and exciting opportunities present themselves at every turn. The leadership team is talented and committed to the long-term sustainability of MSM as a recognized leader in exceptional artistic training. The artist-faculty and classroom faculty are engaged and dedicated to the students and the work that they do. The Board of Trustees is committed to the institutional enterprise and eager to move ahead, led by a focused, dedicated, and energetic leader, Chair Lorraine Gallard. The entire campus Community has been revitalized and, as the School enters its second century, there is a palpable sense of optimism about the future. This is an ideal time for a new Dean of Enrollment Management to join this institution, which is poised to make great strides in the years ahead.

FINANCES Manhattan School of Music’s 2019-20 annual operating budget is $64 million, including an $18-million College scholarship budget. MSM’s endowment and investment portfolio now totals just over $33 million. In 2018–19, the School’s Centennial celebrations were enhanced by fundraising success that saw total funds raised more than double from the previous year, surpassing $10 million for the first time in the institution’s history. MSM’s overall debt currently stands at $33.7 million at various low, fixed rates.
