Shakuhachi Presentations & Performance at Universities

Mission
To present a direct experience of the depth, expressiveness and musical prowess of this rare bamboo instrument. For the musically and culturally curious only.
Experience
As a three-time graduate of the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University, Cornelius recognizes—and remembers—the incredible value that a guest lecturer and performer can bring to the developing undergraduate or graduate music student. Cornelius brings extensive training, and equally important, a 30-year, truly unique performance background.
Also, fair warning for you stuffy academic dogmatists out there, it will not not be fun. Striding into the unknown and unexpected with training, courage and vision is the Cornelius Boots Way. And of course, the scheduling, purpose and content of the event will be relative and consistent with the educational mission and overall strategic goals of your college, school or university department.
