SOUND INVESTMENT - School Of Music
09SOUNDINVESTMENTA Report from DePaul University School of Music2008–09
letter from the deanoctober, 2009Dear Friend,Our school was founded nearly a century ago, with modest (some would say “paltry”) facilities and limitedexpectations, but also with a fervent commitment to serve and the hopes that the new school would notonly endure but become “respectable.” Now, 97 years later, we can look back over many generations ofcapable students and a very long string of dedicated and altogether memorable faculty and staff, and begenuinely astonished at all that these many folks accomplished. The DePaul School of Music rightly standstoday as peer to the few finest and most celebrated music schools in America. I wonder if our founders everimagined such a destiny for their fledgling cause.2008-09Donald E. CaseyDean of the School of MusicIt was our faculty and staff who in large measure fueled this development—together with Universityleaders who sustained a faith in our part of DePaul’s story—who believed that a strong school of musiccould emerge from such modest circumstances and at a University that lived meagerly. Beyond that, it wasgiving and sacrifice that has made the difference, as individuals such as yourself gave the School what theUniversity could not. Those gifts are woven into the fabric of what we’ve become and are now animportant part of what we are. Whether the gifts were of a few dollars or a million or more, we are andalways will be deeply grateful.Now, though, we turn our gaze forward and imagine what the School of Music at DePaul will become.The current faculty and staff, together with the University’s administration, have a vision for the School inwhich grand new purpose-built and state-of-the-art facilities for the School will be constructed within thenext several years, located right where we’ve been since 1977—on the 2300 block of North Halsted!Fully realized, this vision will ensure that fine and needy music students will be able to afford an educationat DePaul, that specialized study materials will be available to them here, and that their learning, practice,and performance experiences will be profoundly enhanced by the spaces in which they will pursue them.It’s a grand and compelling vision, and we trust that many of the folks who care about music, or who careabout music in Chicago, will help us bring this vision into reality. The centennial celebration of the Schoolof Music will be noted in 2012-2013, and we want to celebrate then not only where we’ve been, but alsowhere we are going. We hope you’ll be there with us.Thank you for your kindess, and for your faith in this very special place.Donald E. Casey, DeanDePaul University School of Music2DePaul School of Music1

In order to realize the dream of new facilities for the School of Music and TheTheatre School, DePaul is embarking on a campaign to raise funds on behalfof the performing arts, part of a university-wide effort that will strengthen allareas of the university. Benefiting both the School of Music and The TheatreSchool, the Performing Arts Campaign will seek resources for scholarship andprogrammatic support, in addition to funds to support the facilities projects.Development ReportA committee of volunteers is being formed to help the university raise thenecessary funds for these projects. The Performing Arts Campaign Committeeconsists of alumni and friends of both schools from the professional, corporate,civic and philanthropic communities. We are fortunate to have the leadershipof three close friends of the School of Music and The Theatre School: JamesM. Denny, Life Trustee; Mary Pat Gannon Hay, member of the MusicAdvisory Board; and Sondra Healy, Life Trustee and member of The TheatreBoard. We are also privileged to have two Honorary Co-Chairs: WalterParazaider, MUS’69 and founding member of the band “Chicago,” and LoisWeisberg, Commissioner of Cultural Affairs for the City of Chicago. We aregrateful for their leadership as well as the dedicated efforts of all the membersof the Performing Arts Campaign Committee.The School of Music relies on the support of its alumni and friends, who make possible thegift of music which the School provides on a daily basis to our students and the community.Because of your generosity, the School is able to offer more scholarship funds, recruit andretain stellar faculty, broaden program and ensemble offerings, and expand and renovate ourfacilities—all with the goal of making the School of Music the best that it can be. Thanks toall our alumni and friends for helping us achieve that goal.P e r f o rm i ng A rt s C ampa i gn C o mm i t t e e(in formation)School of MusicAdvisory BoardLincoln Park Master Plan toCreate New FacilitiesThe School of Music Advisory Board is a group of alumni and friends whoserve as strong ambassadors of the School. Members work with the Dean toheighten the School’s profile and reputation in Chicago and beyond, providepersonal financial support to the School, and help identify additional sourcesof funding for the School of Music.Although DePaul University’s School of Music and Theatre School long have beenamong the most prestigious and competitive programs of their kind in the nation,they have been operating out of facilities that are less than world class. The TheatreSchool is currently located in a former elementary school with facilities that dateback to the 1920’s. The School of Music is located in converted seminary buildingswith performance, classroom and practice spaces that do not meet the demands ofthe school’s highly-rated classical and jazz music programs.Rich Daniels, ChairRussell J.
