Top Row L  to R: John Hinkley, Paul Luhring

Since the inception of the Field Rep Program in 1994, it has been an essential component in the success of WSMA programs. Field Reps are retired music educators who continue to give their time, knowledge and experience in support of WSMA activities. Their expertise and enthusiasm has always been of the highest quality and we look forward to more involvement as the Associations move into the future.

Field Reps have assisted at the Wisconsin Center for Music Education with the following projects:

Roger Roznowski and Bob Sebranek assembling and installation of the Wenger Music Library System.

Tom Buchhauser sorting of orchestral scores in Marvin Rabin Orchestral Library of Richard and Nancy Wolf Resource Center.

Jo Anne Wroblewski selected piano music of various periods for Richard and Nancy Wolf Resource Center.

Dan Gilmore assisted in music selection for the WSMA music festival list.

Ernie Broeniman researched and selected Pre-Approved selections for WSMA Festival List Event 9218.

Paul Luhring-PEL Music Co. arranged Middle Level Honors ensemble music for use at 2007 wind and string auditions.

 


Field Representives have participated in the following projects:

WSMA State Marching Band Championships at UW-Whitewater - Ticket sales

Wisconsin State Music Conference

Assisting with Solo & Ensemble and concert adjudication assignments

Fall and spring cleaning projects at the Wisconsin Center for Music Education

Festival manager mentors
