About our instructor
Tricia van Oers was born in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. In 1998
she graduated from the Rotterdam Conservatory (teacher and soloist degrees),
where she studied recorder with Thera de Clerck and Han Tol. Upon
recommendation of the conservatory she was awarded a scholarship, enabling her
to do graduate study at Indiana University's Early Music Institute, where she
received a Performer Diploma with high achievement in Early Music-Instrumental
performance, while being an Associate Instructor. Until the summer of 2000 Ms.
van Oers was employed by the Von Huene Workshop, Inc. in Boston, making,
repairing and testing recorders. She regularly lends her skills to the Workshop
still, and has represented the shop at Early Music Festivals in the United
States and Europe. She was Director of the '99 North American Recorder
Teacher's Conference at Indiana University's School of Music, and was on the
faculty of the Amherst Early Music Festival, I.U.'s Summer Academy, and the '00
North American Recorder Teacher's Seminar. Ms. van Oers taught for the Boston
Recorder Society and teaches frequently as a guest coach for Recorder
Societies. She has performed in solo and ensemble recitals in the Netherlands,
Portugal and the United States. As a founding member of the Rotterdam (NL)
based ensemble Scarabee she recorded at the Great Hall of Mirrors at the
Palace of Versailles (France). She now lives in New York. Her activities
include performances with the New York Ensemble for Early Music, Long Island
Baroque Ensemble, Concert Royal (NYC), a cantata and oratorio performance
with Bard College, the Saratoga Chamber Singers, Vernon Chorale, The
Cantata Singers (Boston), and The Choral Festival Orchestra, Musica
Sacra, and the Philadelphia-based baroque orchestra Tempesta di Mare.
She frequently serves on the faculties of Early Music workshops and is a
founding member of the New Amsterdam Recorder Trio (NewART), which has
performed concerts in collaboration with the Flanders Recorder Quartet and
the viol consort Parthenia.
