Music Faculty

Wooster's music faculty, nine full-time and eighteen adjunct professors, representing a diversity of interests, maintain active careers of distinguished professional achievement. Its faculty includes performers who have recorded widely, appeared in such venues as Carnegie Hall, Alice Tully Hall, the Kennedy Center, Carnegie Recital Hall, London's Purcell Room, and Chicago's Orchestra Hall, and been heard on broadcasts on National Public Radio and other networks; composers whose works have received recognition in the United States and abroad; and scholars whose work has yielded numerous published books, articles and editions. All hold advanced degrees from leading American institutions. Some have pursued study as well in European music centers such as Vienna, London, Salzburg, Florence, and Cambridge.
