Alfredo Muñoz is an arts administrator and researcher focused on artistic labor markets, elite training pipelines, and workforce development in the performing arts. His work examines how access, money, and institutional prestige shape opportunity, economic mobility, and attrition in classical music, treating orchestral careers as a workforce development problem as much as an artistic one. Muñoz brings over a decade of professional experience across orchestra, opera, dance, and theater, spanning nonprofit and for-profit organizations. He has held senior roles in marketing, revenue strategy, corporate partnerships, and organizational operations, including positions at Boston Lyric Opera, Boston Gay Men’s Chorus, Boston Ballet, Verne Q. Powell Flutes, Pacific Symphony, Pacific Chorale, and Baroque Music Festival Corona Del Mar. His administrative work bridges artistic practice and institutional strategy, with a focus on sustainable revenue, audience development, and organizational design. He holds a Master in Public Administration from Harvard Kennedy School, an MBA in Social Impact from Boston University’s Questrom School of Business, and a Bachelor of Music in Flute Performance from California State University, Fullerton. He also completed the League of American Orchestras’ Essentials of Orchestra Management program. Muñoz is a first-generation Mexican American and a fluent Spanish speaker.
