Christina Morris

Christina Morris has her BA in Music Theory. She began studying conducting at the age of 16. Christina would go on to study under Maestro Michael Tilson Thomas as a conducting apprentice of the 2018 National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America. In 2019 she conducted at the Miami Music Festival as a participant of their Conducting Institute lead by Maestro Mark Gibson. During the Winter of 2020 she conducted with the Monteux School of Music under Maestro Michael Jinbo. Christina has recently attended the Tanglewood Music Festival Conducting Seminar led by Maestro Stefan Asbury and Maestro Andris Nelsons, the summers of 2021 and 2022. Additionally, she participated in conducting masterclasses held by the New World Symphony under the mentorship of Maestro Neeme Järvi in spring of 2022 and Maestro Michael Tilson Thomas in the fall of 2022. As Christina envisions a hypothetical industry that is inclusive and equally receptive to different cultures, approaches, and experiences, she uses art as the tool it was created to be. By not only herself, but by a community promoting inclusiveness, we can all contribute to a change that empowers us all to pursue our passions as classical musicians. Christina’s overall goal as an artist is to engage and expose the classical music community to the possibility of change through systemic reconstruction, one beat at a time.
