NAfME-C Advisor
Dr. Andrew Homburg
Dr. Andrew Homburg maintains an active choral career as a researcher, teacher, and singer. Dr. Homburg’s burgeoning research agenda includes music instruction, best practices, aesthetic response and music teacher training. He has presented his research in Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Iowa, North Dakota, Tennessee, and internationally at the International Society of Music Education’s (ISME) World Conferences in Thessaloniki, Greece, and Beijing, China. He previously published in ISME’s Proceedings as well.
He is sought as a clinician and conductor. He has worked with the University of Oklahoma’s Young Men’s Vocal Workshop. While at Fort Lewis College, the Men’s Choir specifically grew drastically in number, capability and purpose; the ensemble began clinics at public schools in conjunction with the regional symphony’s educational program. These clinics were designed to highlight singing male role models to area youth in an attempt to increase male involvement in local music programs. The Men’s Choir was also invited to perform internationally.
Dr. Homburg completed his graduate work at the University of Missouri – Kansas City, where he was a Graduate Teaching Fellow and sang in Conservatory choral ensembles. He also was a co-founding member of the highly acclaimed Armonia Early Music Ensemble, which gave performances at the 2007 ACDA National Conference in Miami, Florida, and at the Piccolo Spoleto Festival in Charleston, South Carolina. He continues to sing with early music ensembles, and has sung with notable ensembles such as the Simon Carrington Chamber Singers.
Prior to beginning his graduate work, Dr. Homburg taught at all levels in the public schools of Kansas and Missouri. His high school choirs consistently received high marks at state music festivals.
Dr. Homburg completed his degrees in vocal performance and music education at Bethany College in Lindsborg, KS. While there, he began another career in church music; a career he continues today as Director of Music Ministries at King’s Way United Methodist Church in Springfield, MO.
