Mabry spent March 28th-30th coaching undergraduate and graduate student soloists in three large master classes.<\/p>\n

The repertoire performed by the students included operatic, as well as art song literature from several historical musical style periods, but emphasized contemporary works by American composers.<\/p>\n

In addition, she presented a talk about her new book, \u201cThe Performing Life: A Singer\u2019s Guide to Survival\u201d and discussed many issues of concern to a future performing artist, taking numerous questions from the large audience.<\/p>\n

“I was extremely impressed with the high level of talent and thorough preparation presented by the singers,\u201d Mabry said. \u201cThey were delightful to work with and eager to experiment with new ideas.”<\/p>\n

During Mabry\u2019s career in music education, she has received APSU\u2019s highest award for creativity, the Richard M. Hawkins Award, and for teaching, the Distinguished Professor Award. Her presence at Southern Illinois was part of their new music festival called Outside the Box. Bringing composers and performers of international acclaim to campus, Outside the Box sees performers join with SIU musicians and composers to create a weeklong atmosphere of engaging, contemporary concert music.<\/p>\n
