Dear friends,

I’m writing to inform you that Brooklyn College has recently completed a

search for a new, full-time faculty member in the areas of Media Scoring

and Sonic Arts. We are excited to announce our new colleague, Professor

Jonathan Zalben. Prof. Zalben has written music for films released by

HBO, Lionsgate, Discover, Sony Pictures Classics, and more. He will lead

our new MFA Media Scoring program, with a focus on teaching students the

techniques and technological skills needed to succeed as a professional

in the field of scoring music to visuals.

Prof. Zalben also has interests and experience with interactive

composition, performance, and installations. His full bio is here:

Related to this news: We still have space for a couple more students to

join our debut class for both the Sonic Arts and Media Scoring MFA

programs this fall. We are capping the enrollment in the programs at ten

each and are excited at the high quality of students we’ve already

accepted. Anyone potentially interested to apply may contact me directly

at dgeers@brooklyn.cuny.edu dgeers@brooklyn.cuny.edu>.

Our MFA courses for fall 2016 will be:

MUSC 7015, Techniques for Recording Music
