    About Guest Artist Trevor Mowry

    Trevor is an oboist based in the Washington, DC area who has been lauded for his “lovely and plaintive” playing (Charleston Gazette). He has played co-principal oboe in “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band since his appointment at age 22 in 2012. In that capacity he has performed in hundreds of band, orchestra, and chamber music concerts in 44 US states, and regularly performs for state functions at the White House. He has appeared as a guest musician with the National Symphony Orchestra, the Kennedy Center Opera House Orchestra, Houston Grand Opera, the Richmond Symphony Orchestra, and the New World Symphony. He can frequently be heard in performance throughout the DC area as principal oboe of the Alexandria Symphony, and as guest principal oboe with the Fairfax Symphony, Annapolis Symphony, Maryland Lyric Opera, the National Philharmonic, Post Classical Ensemble, Cathedral Choral Society, and other esteemed local arts organizations. A passionate educator, Trevor has been featured in master classes at over thirty universities and conservatories across the United States. He is the winds coach for the American Youth Philharmonic Orchestra program, where he helps hone the ensemble-playing skills of outstanding young woodwind players as they prepare to enter top collegiate music programs. He received a Performer’s Certificate and a Bachelor’s Degree in Oboe Performance from the Eastman School of Music, and pursued graduate studies at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music until his appointment to “The President’s Own.” (This bio is presented in an unofficial capacity and neither “The President’s Own” United States Marine Band, the U.S. Marine Corps nor any other component of the Department of Defense or the U.S. Government has endorsed it.)

  • Faculty Artist Series: Lisa Kozenko (oboe) and Catherine Kautsky (piano) 3pm @ Sursa Performance Hall, Ball State University Corner of Riverside and McKinley

    About

    The Faculty Artist Series features School of Music faculty sharing their talent and passion for music with the campus and community. 

    Critically acclaimed for her virtuosity and versatility, oboist Lisa Kozenko performs internationally as a soloist, chamber artist and orchestral musician. Ms. Kozenko has appeared as a concerto soloist with the Nova Filarmonia of Portugal, the National Orchestra of New York, the National Symphony Orchestra of Mexico, the Lehigh Valley Chamber Orchestra and the Greenwich Village Orchestra. Concert engagements include performances at the Phillips Collection in Washington D.C., the Dame Myra Hess Memorial Concert Series in Chicago, the Frick Collection in Pittsburgh and the Trinity Noonday Series, Great Music in the Chapel Series, and Merkin Concert Hall in New York City.

    Catherine Kautsky, Chair of Keyboard at Lawrence University in Appleton, WI, has been lauded by the New York Times as “a pianist who can play Mozart and Schubert as though their sentiments and habits of speech coincided exactly with hers … The music spoke directly to the listener, with neither obfuscation nor pretense.” She was the 2016 winner of the Lawrence Excellence in Teaching Award, the 2013 winner of the university’s Faculty Convocation Award, and in 2017 she was honored with the George and Marjorie Olsen Chandler Chair in Music. Her recording of the Debussy Preludes, released by Centaur in September, 2014, was said to “bring out all the power, majesty, and mystery of Debussy’s conception,“ and a recording of the complete Brahms Sonatas for Violin and Piano was released in 2019 to top reviews. Ms. Kautsky, whose teachers included Rosina Lhevinne, Gyorgy Sebok, Leon Fleisher, Martin Canin, and Gilbert Kalish, has concertized widely, performing in major halls such as Alice Tully Hall, Carnegie Recital Hall, the Phillips Collection, Jordan Hall, and the Chicago Cultural Center. She has soloed with numerous orchestras, including the St. Louis Symphony and Milwaukee Chamber Orchestra, and appeared frequently on public radio. She has spent two sabbaticals in Paris and played abroad in France, England, Italy, Spain, Poland, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Thailand, Brazil, Australia, Russia, and South Africa. Known as both a solo and collaborative performer, Ms. Kautsky has performed chamber music at the Aspen, Tanglewood, and Grand Teton Festivals, and presented masterclasses on five continents, including 2018 appearances in Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hanoi.
