Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, we speak with Kate Sheeran—Joan and Martin Messinger Dean of the Eastman School of Music—about her journey from professional musician to leading one of the greatest music conservatories in the world. Kate reflects on the experiences that shaped her path—from performing at the highest levels as a French horn player to leading major institutions like Kaufman Music Center to returning to the school where she got her start. We begin our conversation with the moment that set it all in motion—how a choice between a jean jacket and a French horn pointed her toward a life in music.
