Hi --
I'm Susan (not Suzanne, altho I don't mind being called that!).
These days I'm mostly an oboist, although I have played clarinet at a relatively high level off and on since I was 12 -- just shy of 50 years! Egads!
For a variety of reasons (none good), I graduated from Capital University in Columbus, Ohio, with a degree in English instead of music, although I did sing in and tour with the locally-famous Chapel Choir. (And I went to high school very close to where Hank L. lives, and apparently just narrowly missed having a colleague of his as my band director.)
Grad School: University of Minnesota, Mpls -- M.A. in American Studies, with concentrations in musicology, architectural history, and literature. Did a thesis on Charles Ives. Can't remember even what it was about now.
Fast forward a number of years, past marriage, lots of music theory courses, childbearing, and early widowhood. I went into the Lutheran seminary with the idea of becoming a music minister, and did that -- including a decade of full-time work in that field, during which I directed "serious" choral music, oversaw installation of a pipe organ, developed three handbell groups, a youth wind ensemble, two rock bands and a contemporary worship service.
It was all a lot of fun.
Now married again, living in rural East Central Ohio, playing the oboe (which I have always wanted to do) and getting good at it. And trying to teach my husband clarinet -- which almost makes me long for the political intrigue and physical exhaustion of being a church musician again. ![[tongue]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie6.gif) Not.
Susan
