Athens News Matters: How Online Learning Works for Music Majors

Many UGA classes are able to transition more or less seamlessly to online learning, but what if your major requires you to perform music in front of a live audience? Athens News Matters senior producer and longtime musician Martin Matheny talked to music majors and faculty about how online learning has affected their performance.

Listen to the full version of Kathryn Koopman's violin composition here.

Martin Matheny is WUGA's Program Director and a host and producer of our local news program 'Athens News Matters.' He started at WUGA in 2012 as a part-time classical music host and still hosts WUGA's longest-running local program 'Night Music' which is heard on WUGA and GPB Classical. He lives in Normaltown with his wife, Shaye and dog, Murphy.
