Introducing our new conductor, Professor Doctor Tom Moore:
Tom Moore has been the Music Librarian at Duke University since April 2007, where he also directed the Collegium Musicum from Sept. 2007 to May 2009. He came to Duke from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he was Visiting Foreign Professor in the Graduate Program in Music at the University of Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO), and co-director of the Camerata Quantz, the early music ensemble for UNIRIO. He sang in the Symphonic Choir of Rio under the direction of Julio Moretzsohn. Before moving to Brazil he sang with Pomerium Musices and Concert Royal in New York, and directed La Fenice and the Dunstable Singers in Boston. He also performs extensively on baroque flute, modern flute, and recorder, with compact discs of chamber music by Telemann and Boismortier to his credit.
