LA’s new cello professor

LA’s new cello professor

The University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music has awarded Robert Mann Chair in Strings and Chamber Music to Seth Parker Woods. He writes:

This honor comes as a total surprise when I got the call, but I love my school, department and colleagues and so excited to see where we continue going and the changes we make for the future. I first met the late Bobby Mann (founding violinist of the Juilliard Quartet and long time Juilliard faculty member) many moons ago when I was a high school student and was forever in awe of his musicianship and the way he could pull musical lines out of budding musicians. Thank you to Dean King and the USC Provost for this honor. Onward!
