Laurea in Musica - Strumenti a Fiato

The Woodwind Area at UW-Madison School of Music comprises five professors, all vitally connected with the national and international musical world. Our musical interests are broad and far-reaching and include cutting-edge composition and extended techniques as well as the standard solo repertoire on which all of our playings is based. All of our faculty members have advanced degrees from high-ranking music schools in the United States and Europe and are extremely active in the field of research, teaching, and performing. One of the most delightful aspects of the Woodwind Area is the professors' commitment to their students’ success and our willingness to help each other’s students. Many woodwind professors teach small ensembles each semester and often coach each other’s students on special projects. It’s a highly collegial atmosphere with a lot of give-and-take between the studios. The Woodwind Area frequently invites guest artists to inspire and teach our students and represents a breadth of knowledge and a keen interest in developing the individual student.
