When not serving as vocalist, bone “virtuoso”, and song arranger
or bone clacker with CF,
Andy Rosenfeld teaches at Mount St. Mary’s University, where he directs the
Chorale and Seminary Choir and teaches courses in music and in the humanities.
In addition to the Mount Chorale, which recently toured Spain, he has directed
choirs at Ashland University (Ohio) and St. Lawrence University (New York).
He also spends his
spare time as music director of Capital Opera Harrisburg and as a member of the Gettysburg Schola Cantorum,
directed by our own sqeezeboxer, Stephen Folkemer,
artistic director, which premiered his “Psalm 23”, a work appearing on
the upcoming compact disc, Voices of Hope and Comfort. When not
clacking
bones or teaching, Rosenfeld can also occasionally be spotted playing piano
with the Fire City Jazz Band and Apple Museum Big Band. Most recently,
he has turned his attention to the study of ancient and traditional music
of Spain, has led
him on several occasions to that country’s Sierra Nevada region. His research in this area will ultimately culminate
in a book on
traditional music from Andalusia – that’s
the plan, at least.
