Dr. Holmes received the M.M. degree in conducting from the University of New Mexico and the D.M.A. degree in choral music from Arizona State University. Previous positions range from Choral Director for the New Mexico Symphony Orchestra to church choir positions; from public school teaching to conducting light opera in civic theatres. Prior to coming to Millikin, Dr. Holmes was Associate Director of Choirs at Luther College in Decorah, Iowa. Choirs under Brad Holmes’ direction have sung in every state but Alaska and in thirty-three countries. In 2000 he was a Visiting Fellow at Cambridge University working primarily with the Clare College Choir. He has returned to England for guest-conducting engagements in Windsor and Manchester. Other invitations include engagements in the Far East conducting choirs from Japan, Korea, China and the Philippines. Dr. Holmes’ domestic guest-conducting schedule has included All-State and District festivals as well as church music clinics throughout the United States. In his eighteen years at Millikin University, Dr. Holmes has overseen the growth of the choral program to five traditional choirs and a variety of smaller vocal ensembles involving 275 singers and eight staff. The Millikin University Choir has toured internationally to Norway, Russia, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Puerto Rico, China, Taiwan and England. Under Dr. Holmes’ direction the choir has produced four CDs on Millikin’s First Step Recording label. In the past decade, the choir has performed for three regional conventions of the American Choral Director's Association (ACDA). Their recent performance before the National Convention of ACDA in Miami garnered new attention on the choir’s approach to tonal variety. Dr. Holmes responsibilities at Millikin include teaching Choral Techniques and Conducting. He is artistic director for Millikin’s Christmas Vespers, which attracts 6,500 people annually. He frequently contributes arrangements to First Step Publishing, Millikin’s student-run publishing house. His arrangements have also been published Santa Barbara Music Press. 2009 All State Men’s Choir Nate Adams , Pueblo South HS Dakota David , Weld Central Jackson Kaufman , D'Evelyn HS Jeffry Ogden , Smoky Hill Evan Anderson , Golden HS Nathaniel Dolquist , ThunderRidge Scottie Kelly , Loveland Zac Ostrowski , Durango High School Zachary Anderson , Regis Boys HS Brandon Dougherty , Niwot HS Josh Kettle , Canon City HS John Parker , The Classical Academy Andrew Aragon , Pueblo South HS Andy Douglas , Arvada West Max Kleber , Berthoud HS Alex Petterson , Fort Collins HS Christopher Arroyo , Sand Creek HS Gabriel D'Silva , Ridgeview Classical Robby Kleber , Berthoud HS Josh Polkinghorn , The Vanguard Michael Artzer , Legacy HS Jason Escalera , Gateway HS Stephen Knauff , Douglas County HS School Brock Avery , Horizon HS Peter Farley , Littleton HS Sam Kok , Denver Christian Zac Quesenberry , Fruita Monument Mike Ballard , Dakota Ridge Kevin Fiorini , Arapahoe HS Sean Kovaks , Rock Canyon HS Kip Rasmussen , Alamosa High School Timothy Bannister , Pine Creek HS Eric Fischer , Fossil Ridge Ben Kuelthau , Fairview Jeffery Reynolds , Ridgeview Classical Mark Baumgardner , Columbine High Zach Fisher , Hotchkiss HS Nick Lagrow , Lakewood Marco Robinson , Pine Creek HS Robert Berg , Grandview Ryan Foo , Denver School of the Arts Paul Langford , Heritage Patrick Rooney , Cherry Creek H.
