by Stacy M. Brown November 29, 2024November 29, 2024

Michael Jackson’s 1982 album “Thriller” broke records and redefined the music industry, becoming the best-selling album of all time with over 70 million copies sold worldwide, and its iconic short film has now surpassed one billion views on YouTube.

On Wednesday, Nov. 13, Strathmore’s acclaimed Artist in Residence (AIR) program held their annual “Fresh AIR” concert, previewing the class of 2025 and commemorating the program’s 20th anniversary. This year’s cohort consists of Gabby Cameron (banjo), Jack Gruber (piano), Hasan Imam Hamdani (guitar), Maximilian Jacobs (violin), Marcel Penzes (trombone), and Qi Yu (guzheng).
