About Northeastern University's Fusion Arts Exchange

The Fusion Arts Exchange (FAX) is an educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. A multinational group of 20 undergraduates from six nations will spend more than five weeks in an intensive program studying individual and collaborative music composition, individual musical coaching, instrument - specific instruction, group lessons, American music history, and individual and group performance opportunities. All students will be in residence at Northeastern University in Boston. In addition there are three educational study tours to New York City, the Tanglewood Music Center in Lenox, MA, and Washington, D.C.

The Chameleon Arts Ensemble is proud to be part if this inventive program. In addition to the opening concert, artists from the Ensemble will give private instrumental & vocal instruction to the participating students throughout the five weeks.
