Timothy Stalter

Timothy Stalter is director of Choral Activities and conducts Iowa's premier choral ensemble, Kantorei, and summer opera. He also teaches graduate advanced conducting and administrates the graduate program in choral conducting. Prior to coming to Iowa, Dr. Stalter was assistant director of Choral Activities at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, director of Choral Activities at the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point, and Assistant Professor of Music at Goshen College (IN).

He received his doctorate from the University of Wisconsin at Madison in choral conducting under Robert Fountain, the master's in choral music from the University of Illinois at Urbana under Don Moses, and his undergraduate degree in voice performance from Goshen College (IN).

Dr. Stalter is particularly interested in researching issues relating to the teaching of conducting to undergraduates and historical musical performance. He is a frequent guest clinician in the United States and is an active member of the American Choral Directors Association.

In addition to conducting and teaching choral music, Dr. Stalter is active as a tenor soloist in the United States and abroad, specializing in music of the Renaissance, Baroque and Classical periods. He is widely known for his performances as the Evangelist in the Passions of J.S. Bach and Heinrich Schütz. Among his credits are appearances as tenor soloist with the Newfoundland Symphony Orchestra, the North Carolina Symphony, the Robert Shaw Festival Singers in France, the Robert Shaw Chamber Choir in Atlanta, the Classical Music Seminar and Festival in Eisenstadt, Austria, and the Shenandoah Valley Bach Festival. In July 1999, he was tenor soloist in Haydn's Creation for the International Cathedral Music Festival in Oxford and London, England. Dr. Stalter has also recorded as soloist with Robert Shaw on two compact discs (Amazing Grace and Songs of Angels) released on the Telarc label.
