CLARINET !!!
"Why the exclamation marks",
you ask. Well if playing the clarinet is where you want
to be, then this man is the person with whom you should study.
Ron and I had the opportunity to meet while I
was teaching at Creighton Middle School in 2005-06. If
you've read the page on Virgil Rosenberger, and I hope that
you will, then you will be able see our common bonds.
Mr. Owens not only graduated from Colorado
University but from Denver University as well.
In addition to his education in Colorado, he had the
distinction of studying privately with the professor of
clarinet of the Julliard School of Music (I'm quite
envious).
His performances have included the Brico
Symphony, Central City Opera, Colorado Ballet, Colorado Symphony, the Old Colorado Symphony, Colorado Choral, Lakewood Symphony and, if all that
wasn't enough, he's presently principal clarinetist for the Denver Municipal Band. The Denver
Municipal Band can be heard at many different locations and
also appears in concert periodically on local television
station channel 8. You might also have heard him perform
if you had tickets for the Broadway shows: Showboat, Evita or
Fiddler on the Roof!
Teaching is another of his fortes! Mr.
Owens has taught our children in the Denver and Jefferson
County Public Schools. He has also instructed
clarinet in the following schools: Arapahoe Community
College, Colorado Women's College, Denver
University's Lamont School of Music and the University
of Colorado.
Presently, he is accepting private students.
Those studying under him cover all age groups and talent
levels. Mr. Owens states: "Some of my serious students
have achieved high rewards and won valuable college
scholarships." Like myself, he enjoys teaching beginning
students because of the joy experienced by their rapid
achievement.
Ron's association with Danyo Music Studio is
but through our mutual friendship. He maintains his own
business schedule and it is with confidence and pride that I
present to you:
RON OWENS
