All three students have been strongly involved in the leadership of the UMM chapter of this important professional organization, as its President, Vice President and Secretary. Their achievements include (among many others) the organization and leadership of field trips to the Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic in Chicago and to the Minnesota Music Educators' Association's Midwinter Clinic in Minneapolis, as well as the inauguration of a new presentation series on the UMM campus. MENC would like to distinguish these three outstanding members for exemplary chapter activities and member achievements, serving as role models for other Collegiate chapters, and recognizing their contributions to the music education profession. http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=10874 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=10874 Wed, 04 Aug 2010 14:08:00 CDT Elaine Simonds-Jaradat "Postcards" theme music underscores stories of the people of western Minnesota. http://www.morris.umn.edu/webbin/RSS/images/10874_thumb.jpg http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=10709 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=10709 Fri, 18 Jun 2010 11:06:00 CDT Elaine Simonds-Jaradat Denise Odello, assistant professor of music, received an Imagine Fund Award to support her drum corps research. http://www.morris.umn.edu/webbin/RSS/images/10709_thumb.jpg http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8926 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8926 Mon, 21 Sep 2009 18:09:00 CDT Martin Seggelke Dr. Jean Richards presented at the Macro Analysis Creative Research Organizaition (MACRO), in Madison, Wisconsin, in June 2009. http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8886 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8886 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 11:09:00 CDT Martin Seggelke Martin Seggelke presented on German Wind Music at the International Conference of the World Association of Symphonic Bands and Ensembles in July 2009 in Cincinnati, OH. http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8887 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8887 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 11:09:00 CDT Martin Seggelke Ann DuHamel performed at New Paltz Summer Festival and on televised concert series in Iowa. http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8888 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8888 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 11:09:00 CDT Martin Seggelke Ann DuHamel tours throughout the States with soprano Catherine Verrilli http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8860 http://www.morris.umn.edu/academics/music/view.php?itemID=8860 Wed, 16 Sep 2009 12:09:00 CDT Martin Seggelke Dr. Joe Carucci, UMM's new professor for Music Education and Jazz, completed his doctorate!
