Together, the remarkable people below devoted over 1,000 years of artistry and compassion to CIM and its students, but their impact on the musical world is truly impossible to measure. They are the teachers, performers, mentors, and leaders who have made the Cleveland Institute of Music the world-class institution it is.
CIM's President and Faculty join together in elevating these remarkable individuals to Faculty Emeritus. Faculty who complete their teaching career at CIM are eligible for Emeritus status if they have taught at CIM for at least 15 years, with a record of recognized excellence in teaching and exemplary service to CIM and the community, and having demonstrated deep respect for colleagues and others.
Our entire community enthusiastically welcomes them to the ranks of CIM’s most illustrious instructors over more than a century in Cleveland.
