SLU FACULTY WOODWIND QUINTET PLANS CONCERT
      HAMMOND -- Southeastern Louisiana University’s Faculty Woodwind Quintet will present its fall concert Thursday, November 21, at the Music Recital Hall.
      The free concert is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Members of the quintet are Southeastern faculty members Carolyn Treybig, flute; Mary Kay Young, oboe; Deborah Andrus, clarinet; Janiece Luedeke, horn; and Jerry Voorhees, bassoon.
      “The concert will be filled with mixed duos and trios by Koechlin, Kummer, Dukas and Piazzolla, a quartet by Jean Francaix for winds, and conclude with Carl Nielsen's ‘Quintet, Op. 43' for woodwind quintet,” said Andrus.
      The program also will feature Southeastern music faculty members Allen Zurcher, saxophone; Patrick Kerber, guitar; and Thais Perkins, piano.
      Voorhees has been a member of the music faculty since 1971. A graduate of the University of North Texas and Yale University, he also studied electronic music at Dartmouth College. Because of his avid interest in the history of musical instruments, he founded and directs the Collegium Musicum, a group that performs period music on antique instruments.
      An active performer, Voorhees is principal bassoonist for the Jefferson Orchestra and has been principal soloist with the Baton Rouge Orchestra and the New Orleans Ballet Orchestra.  Besides bassoon, he plays the recorder, flute, and oboe. He also directs Southeastern’s annual Young Musicians Camp. 
      Treybig received her undergraduate degrees in music education and flute performance from the Baldwin-Wallace Conservatory. She also earned master’s degrees in flute performance and music history from the University of Akron, and a doctoral degree in flute performance from the University of Texas at Austin. 
      Previously, she served as adjunct instructor at the University of Southern Mississippi. She currently resides in Hattiesburg, Miss., where she is an active recitalist and freelance 
performer. At Southeastern, she teaches flute and music history and appreciation courses.
      Andrus, who teaches clarinet, woodwind chamber music and music appreciation, holds degrees in clarinet performance from State University of New York-Potsdam, and Michigan State University and received a doctoral degree in clarinet performance from The Ohio State University.
      Before coming to Southeastern, she was on the faculty at Delta State University in Cleveland, Miss. In summer 2000 and 2001, she  was the featured soloist with the Ringgold Band in Reading, Penn. She recently was appointed to teach clarinet at the New England Music Camp in Oakland, Maine, in summer 2002. 
      Luedeke is a graduate of Louisiana State University, the University of Akron and the Lawrence Conservatory of Music. She was a featured soloist at the 1999 Southeast Horn Conference and has performed professionally with the Ohio Ballet Orchestra, the Akron Symphony Orchestra and the Ohio Light Opera Orchestra. She currently performs with the Baton Rouge Symphony Orchestra, the Acadiana Symphony Orchestra of Lafayette, the Natchez Summer Opera and the Louisiana Brass.
      Previously, she was instructor of high brass at Malone College in Canton, Ohio, and was the brass methods instructor at the Lawrence Conservatory. She has taught public school extensively in Wisconsin and in East Baton Rouge Parish, where she teaches in the gifted and talented program.
      Young’s performance experience includes the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, the Jefferson Performing Arts Society, the South Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, and the Midland-Odessa Symphony Orchestra. She is a graduate of Northwestern University and the University of Southern Mississippi.
