Ms. Drummond earned her degree in music from the University of Kentucky. She has many distinguished honors including principal cellist for the Shreveport Summer Music Festival, Aspen and Breckenridge Festival seats and summer studies at Oberlein. She is Conductor of the Shreveport Youth Orchestra, which she adores; and Ms. Drummond has perfect pitch.
Paul Christopher is currently a visiting fellow with the prestigious Nashville String Machine in Nashville, TN. He is on one-year leave of absence from his position as principal cellist of the Shreveport Symphony Orchestra. Mr. Christopher earned his Masters Degree in Cello Performance from the University of Memphis. Besides his mastery of cello technique and expression, he is an exceptional teacher and a great spokesman for classical repertoire (with a notable partiality to Offenbach!).
