What is it about a Boston Conservatory at Berklee education that lays the foundation for success in the performing arts and beyond?
Anyone who has studied at Boston Conservatory knows that the answer goes deeper than mastery of one’s chosen art form. While most of our alums have built vibrant careers within the performing arts, others are thriving as technologists, doctors, teachers, politicians, entrepreneurs, lawyers, and as multihyphenate professionals.
