Conductor
Dr. Robert Franzblau
Dr. Robert Franzblau has lived and worked at the intersection of musical performance and music education for over forty years. Recently retired from teaching and conducting music at the college level, this year he is serving in his fifteenth year as conductor and artistic director of the Rhode Island Wind Ensemble. Franzblau earned the Bachelor of Music from the University of Iowa; studied conducting with John P. Paynter at Northwestern University, earning a Master of Music; and received his Ph.D. in music education from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He has taught instrumental music at all levels, from sixth grade beginning band to graduate students in music. In 2021, he earned RYT® 200-hour instructor certification in Integrative Yoga Therapy at One Yoga Center in Foster, RI. His yoga teaching emphasizes alignment, strength, and balance as cornerstones of healthy aging, as well as a sense of curiosity and wonder at the connection between body, breath, and mind.
