Recital: Misha Bjerken '23, Double Bass
NEC's students meet one-on-one each week with a faculty artist to perfect their craft. As each one leaves NEC to make their mark in the performance world, they present a full, professional recital that is free and open to the public. It's your first look at the artists of tomorrow.
Misha Bjerken '23 studies Double Bass with Donald Palma and is the recipient of the Blow Family Scholarship and the Sidney and Esther Rabb Scholarship.
This is an in-person event with a private stream available to the NEC community here: https://necmusic.edu/live
