Michael Richards Celebration of Life

Earl and Darielle Linehan Concert Hall

The campus community was saddened by the recent passing of Dr. E. Michael Richards, professor emeritus of music. One of the world’s leading interpreters of contemporary music for the clarinet, Michael was an exemplary performer, researcher, and educator. He joined the UMBC faculty in 2001, was promoted to full professor in 2009, and twice served as chair of the music department before retiring with emeritus status in 2021. We hope you will be able to join us, either in person or online, on Tuesday evening, March 7 at 6pm in Earl and Darielle Linehan Concert Hall, as we celebrate Michael's life.
