Event Organizers

Dr. Adam Luebke, director of choral activities, is in his first year as a member of the music faculty at Waldorf College. He graduated with his doctorate from Florida State University. As a young boy, Luebke sang with the world-renowned American Boychoir in the Czech Republic, Poland and throughout North America. As a young man, he toured North America and Europe with the St. Olaf Choir, singing at great cathedrals and concert halls, as well as churches of all kinds. In these travels he experienced how deeply music touches the emotions and passions of people everywhere.

With these groups, and with the famous Westminster Choir, Luebke had the privilege of collaborating with groups such as Chanticleer, the New York Philharmonic, the Minnesota Orchestra, the New Jersey Symphony, and the Boston Symphony and with artists such as Wynton Marsalis, Kathleen Battle, and Frederica von Stade. Singing for maestros such as Charles Dutoit, Robert Shaw, Kurt Masur, Andre Previn, and Lorin Maazel taught him the discipline and vulnerability needed for creating the highest level of artistic expression.
