Tiffany Valvo

Picture
A charismatic performer, clarinetist Tiffany Valvo won her first orchestral job at the age of twenty-one with the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra. She has played with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, been on international tours with the American Wind Symphony Orchestra, and a participant in the Brevard Music Festival, Boston University Tanglewood Institute, the Eastern Music Festival, and the CCM Spoleto festival in Spoleto, Italy. Winning a private grant in May 2012, Tiffany is currently taking a year pause in her doctoral studies at the Eastman School of Music to study at the Trossingen Hochschule für Musik, Germany with the Israeli clarinetist Chen Halevi. 

An excited believer in the importance of contemporary music, Tiffany has become a sought-after performer of this repertoire. In July 2012 she played at the Sante Fe Chamber Music Festival where she was coached by Magnus Lindberg, Chen Halevi and Anssi Karttunen. In March of the same year, she performed small chamber works by living composers at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Tiffany was the secretary and director of outreach of the OSSIA new music organization at the Eastman School of Music in 2012/13. One her more memorable experiences with the organization was leading a successful outreach project where school children participated in a performance of Terry Riley's In C on their recorders with the OSSIA ensemble members.  Tiffany has played under contemporary focused conductors such as Brad Lubman, Jeffrey Milarsky and Alan Pierson. 
Finding teaching just as vital as performing, Tiffany has made an effort to teach everywhere she has lived. She currently holds a position at Der Bläserjugend der Stadtmusik Bonndorf in Germany, teaching a private studio of students ages 8-16.  Previously she held a position at the Eastman Community Music School in Rochester, NY.  

Tiffany has a Bachelors Degree in Clarinet Performance from The Florida State University and a Master of Music in Clarinet Performance from Eastman where she was the teaching assistant of Jon Manasse. Her other teachers include Frank Kowalsky, Kenneth Grant and Deborah Bish.

Giving a spectacular variety of listeners and students a chance to escape their world, if for only a few minutes, to gain inspiration for their own lives is the distilled goal of her life as a musician.
