Title Change Due to Restructuring

CHAIR, THE DEPARTMENT OF INSTRUMENTAL STUDIES (2006 – 2010)

2001-2006 ARTISTIC DIRECTOR, UNCG ARTIST FACULTY CHAMBER SERIES Responsible for all aspects of managing the series, including artistic considerations, logistics, and publicity. This series was designed by me to capitalize upon the extensive resources within the UNCG School of Music and, in various configurations, enable performances of a wide variety of repertoire. One innovative aspect of this series involved commentary provided by guest speakers; commentaries that provided an enlightening framework for the performances proper. The inaugural season included two concerts. Further seasons saw expansion to four concerts featuring collaborations with the department of Dance, Cinema and Broadcast Theater, and English. Another added marketing feature was the pre-concert lectures presented on student convocation the day before the concert. This new, highly visible series proved to appeal to a wide range of audiences and further showcased our many and diverse artist faculty.

Kelly J Burke | Page 3 2004-2006 COORDINATOR, DOCTOR OF MUSIC ARTS IN PERFORMANCE CURRICULUM REVISION Responsible for all aspects of a sweeping revision to the DMA in music performance at UNCG. Involved significant information gathering and sharing across all stake holders in the School of Music and the Graduate School, rigorous application of the NASM requirements for Doctoral Education, and keeping all lines of communication flowing in all directions in order to reach consensus. This degree moved from a highly proscriptive set of requirements to a proficiency-based program allowing for maximum individuality. Along with the curriculum change, I provided a faculty/student handbook that outlined all procedures and policies for this new approach. This degree and handbook largely remain in place today.

2004-2006 TREASURER, INTERNATIONAL CLARINET ASSOCIATION Responsible for oversight and management of ICA accounts in consultation with an outside accounting firm. This included recording journals, posting general ledgers, reconciling bank statements, posting earnings records, processing credit cards, preparing monthly reports on the assets, liabilities and the related statement of receipts and disbursements of the ICA, making recommendations to the ICA board vis-à-vis the management of our financial resources, writing treasury reports for distribution to the ICA Board and legal counsel, preparing and publishing an Annual Financial Statement, and preparing quarterly copyright registration for The Clarinet with the International Copyright Office.

1993-1995 COORDINATIOR, WOODWIND AREA, UNCG SCHOOL OF MUSIC Responsible for coordinating repertoire class schedules, developing programs for combined studio

recitals, and organizing end-of-semester performance juries.

ONGOING RESEARCH PROJECTS INCLUDE USING TECHNOLOGY AS AN ENHANCEMENT TO APPLIED TEACHING. RESEARCH I am developing a visual feedback system to help analyze and quantify tone production on the clarinet ACTIVITY using techniques originally developed for use in speech analysis. The traditional method of teaching tone quality on wind instruments relies almost exclusively on use of descriptive words. One of the contributing factors is that it has been impossible until recently to see into the oral cavity, which is central to tone production.

Additionally, instructors of wind instruments have also tended to neglect the demonstrable benefits of spectrographic analysis, which is a regular component of vocal pedagogy and speech therapy. Wind players, therefore, develop sound concepts through modeling—listening to other live or recorded musicians. Unfortunately, physical attributes of the model sound are not analyzed in any quantitative manner. If the physical qualities of the sound as shown through spectrographic analysis could be determined to relate to changes that occur in the oral cavity, then it may be easier to obtain the desired objective of efficient, good tone production.
