In addition to this year’s graduates, we would also like to acknowledge our 2024 alumni and distinguished service award recipients.

Young Alumni Award

Connor Chee (MM Piano, ’11) is known for combining his classical piano training with his Native American heritage. Chee made his Carnegie Hall debut at the age of 12 after winning a gold medal in the World Piano Competition. Chee’s 2020 album “Scenes from Dinétah” features piano pieces written about elements of Navajo life and culture, accompanied by several music videos filmed on the reservation, directed by Navajo filmmaker Michael Etcitty Jr. Chee’s most recent release, ”Across the Desert: The Long Walk Home,” stands as a musical tribute to the Navajo people’s journey through adversity and the triumphant return to their cherished ancestral lands.

J.T. Rooney (BFA Media Production, ’11) is a screen producer at Silent Partners Studio in Los Angeles, California. He served as Projection Designer for the Superbowl LII halftime show in 2018, has toured with Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Billy Joel, Kanye West and more. He was named to Live Design Online’s “30 under 30” list in 2018. 

Brian Raphael Nabors’ (MM Composition, ’15; DMA Composition, ’19) music has been throughout the United States and at many international events, including the Lucerne and Helsinki music festivals, National Orchestral Institute (NOI), Aspen and Tanglewood Music Festivals. Upcoming projects in ‘24-25 include the world premiere of a chamber ballet (Black Iris Project), a choir and chamber orchestra arrangement for Carnegie Hall (Mid-America Productions), a co-commissioned premiere with Seattle Symphony, and a concerto for orchestra with Chineke! for premiere at Elbphilharmonie, Hamburg, Germany.

Distinguished Alumni Award

Melody Moore (MM Voice, ’05) is enjoying a thriving career on the world’s leading stages, prompting Opera News to label her “a revelation,” and of her sold-out appearance at Carnegie Hall to rave, “As I left the auditorium, I could only think: more of Moore, please.” She has performed with La Opera, Minnesota Orchestra, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, San Francisco Opera, Houston Grand Opera, Washington National Opera, Opéra de Montréal, Glimmerglass Festival, Lincoln Center Festival and more.

Distinguished Service Award

Jeffrey W. Thomas founded Jeff Thomas Catering July 1985, which has supported many special events at CCM with delicious food. Throughout his 39-year career, he has been deeply involved in community organizations including the CCMpower Board, the Carnegie of Covington, Kentucky Board, Caracole Board, Children’s Home of Northern Kentucky and he was a past recipient of Lighthouse Youth Services Beacon of Light Award.
