Dr. TADEU COELHO, UNCSA Artist/Flute Professor
Tadeu Coelho joined the artist-faculty of School of Music at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts in the fall of 2002.

Woodwind Faculty at UNCSA: Tadeu Coelho,
flute; Saxton Rose, bassoon, Taimur Sullivan, saxophone,
Oskar Espina Ruiz, clarinet and Robin Driscol, oboe.
Students in the High School Woodwind
Program work toward developing excellence and ease in tone,
intonation, rhythm, technique, articulation and musicality;
confidence in performance; and learning standard solo and
ensemble repertoire.
The intimate conservatory setting provides excellent
performance opportunities for all students, under the
direct supervision of artist faculty members Tadeu Coelho,
flute; Saxton Rose, bassoon; and Taimur Sullivan,
saxophone.
Students meet with the primary studio teacher for private
lessons, master class, chamber ensemble, and sectional
coaching for the larger ensembles. Additional performance
in Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, the School of the Arts
Contemporary Music Ensemble, and informal student organized
ensembles, offers you the breadth of experience necessary
for success in the music business. If you wish to
specialize in the performance of jazz music you may choose
to audition for the jazz ensemble, and enroll in jazz
improvisation and jazz arranging. If you’re a double
reed player, you will study reed-making, maintenance and
repair.
The goal of the undergraduate woodwind
program at the North Carolina School of the Arts is to
enable the student to refine technical skills and develop
advanced interpretive techniques through the study and
performance of significant works from the woodwind
literature. All undergraduate woodwind students are
required to perform a recital in their senior year.
Ensemble participation is by juried auditions. Students may
be chosen to perform with the Symphony Orchestra, Opera
Orchestra, Wind Ensemble, Jazz Ensemble, School of the Arts
Contemporary Ensemble, Cantata Singers and chamber music
groups.
Comprehensive performance experience
Intensive personalized instruction - Preparation for career
success
The woodwind graduate program at the North
Carolina School of the Arts offers the highest level of
instruction by an internationally acclaimed faculty,
tailored to the student’s needs and professional
goals. Classes are small and students receive personalized
attention. Every student is given a significant number of
performance opportunities in both large ensembles and
chamber music groups. The graduate program enables students
to refine their technical skills and develop advanced
interpretative techniques through the study and performance
of significant works from the woodwind literature (see
sample program repertoire below for flute, oboe, clarinet,
bassoon and saxophone.)
Other Program Features:
* Opportunities to perform outside the school
* Special teaching and performance assignments
* Two degree recitals
* Participation in Symphony Orchestra, Opera Orchestra,
Wind Ensemble, Jazz Ensemble and Contemporary Ensemble
As a conservatory, the School’s focus is on preparing
students to begin their careers as performing artists; yet
at the same time, the school actively involves the student
with the practical aspects of earning a living as a
musician. A combination of professional opportunities
outside the School, along with this specially designed
curriculum, widens the scope of the student’s career
perspectives and constitutes a contemporary,
market-sensitive approach to educating musicians.
