The proclamation noted the school's legacy of education and performance.
For example in Pittsburgh, some 22 members of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra are Carnegie Mellon graduates and faculty members, as are members of the Pittsburgh Opera, the Opera Theatre of Pittsburgh, the Bach Choir of Pittsburgh and the Mendelssohn Choir of Pittsburgh. The school's internationally recognized programs in eurhythmics and solfege also are celebrated.
