The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, Southeast Chapter, has recognized Georgia Southern University’s Multimedia Development Center and Department of Music with an EmmyAward for Best Live Audio.

Jeffrey Clark, graduate student in the Department of Music, Art Berger, director of the MDC, and Rebecca Lynch, academic and post-production producer for the MDC, won for their work in recording live the Georgia Southern University Wind Symphony’s performance of “Lis Escoubo” from Suite Provençal by Jan Van der Roost. Conducted by Colin McKenzie, D.M.A., the Wind Symphony is composed of students majoring in music education and performance as well as students from many other colleges and departments on campus.

The MDC provides students with professional opportunities to hone their skills in the areas of multimedia and television production.

“We are very proud of our collaboration with the Department of Music, especially the work of our students and their outstanding performance,” said Berger.
