 1965 Linda S. Clark, Bass
Peterborough, Ontario, Canada
Currently I am a licensed Brain Gym instructor and consultant, helping people overcome learning and performance challenges, and specializing in performer's issues (including workshops at Oberlin Conservatory and the University of New Mexico music department). I am still playing a lot, but piano these days, not bass. I played a solo piano recital last year, and am enjoying playing chamber music with local area musicians.
Richard Glashow, Percussion
Priscilla Hallberg, Violin
Sully, Iowa
I married Gordon Hallberg in 1969. I taught at Central College and Gordan had a job as a string teacher in the Marshalltown, Iowa, schools -- quite a switch from bass trombone! I often remember all the fun we had in GBYSO... It is surely the reason I continued in music, and one of the most memory filled times of my life. I always think of it whenever I need to come up with music or inspiration for my students.
Robert Markow, Horn
Montreal, Quebec, Canada
I graduated from BU in 1969 from the College of Liberal Arts with a major in music. I got my first job playing 2nd horn in the Montreal Symphony from 1969-1974, then jumped the stage to get into music journalism and criticism. I've carved my own niche by becoming a full-time, self-employed program-note writer for orchestras and concert societies across North America, I keep busy when I'm home, but I'm traveling about 20% of the year.
Ellie May Shufro, Violin
Veazie, Maine
I work as a free-lance musician (performing, recording, teaching in a home studio). I earned a Masters degree in violin performance, but I have also performed on electric bass, viola, mandolin, guitar and vocals - playing rock, country, swing, klezmer, ancient, bluegrass, classical and various ethnic musics. I can be heard on a number of folk recordings, including "Lonesome Waters" (Shanachie) with Tommy Makem.
E. Buddy Williams, Percussion
Robert C. Wilson, Violin| In the four years I was in orchestra, my 2 sisters and my family became very close to Marvin Rabin and his son Ralph. I ran into Ralph many years later at the Von Trapp Family Lodge in Stowe, Vermont. He was studying to be a violin maker. My sister Jeanne Wilson(Bateman) (1961) is the cellist pictured as the ALUMNI on the web page. She went on to study cello at the University of Michigan and was 1st chair cellist of the World University Orchestra at Interlocken. She continued her cello playing, composing, and music teaching in Vermont. Cancer ended her brilliant music career in the mid 1980's. My sister Joan Wilson (Kirchoff) (1963) violinist, continues to teach music in schools and privately. I am now an orthdontist in private practice in Winchester, Mass. and also a Clinical Professor at Tufts School of Dental Medicine in Boston. I still play the violin occasionally on holidays, at wedding and at funerals. Some of my patients over the last few years have been members of the GBYSO. It is wonderful seeing the growth of the vision that Marvin Rabin began. |
