Richard Rodgers. Miles Davis. Van Cliburn. Itzhak Perlman. Robin Williams, Kevin Kline, Patti LuPone. Mandy Patinkin. For over a century, Juilliard has trained the artists who compose the elite of the performing arts in the United States. Andrea Olmsteads eyeopening history of the conservatory takes readers into the practice rooms, studios, and offices of the worldfamous music school and its sister institutions teaching drama and dance.Olmsteads indepth interviews from across the Julliard community combine with unprecedented access to the schools archives to reveal the schools private side. As she tracks the institution through its various incarnations, Olmstead looks at the accomplishments and foibles of Julliards leaders and the whitehot controversies surrounding events like Augustus Juilliards multi milliondollar bequest in 1919 and the schools expensive move to the Lincoln Center complex. Throughout, she provides vivid accounts of powerbrokering, arrogance, intimidation, secrecy, and infighting balanced against the vision, dedication, talent, and determination of generations of gifted teachers, students, and administrators.
