Andrew Crow, Assistant Director of Choral Activities, joined the Ball State faculty in 2009 as Assistant Professor of Music where he teaches conducting, graduate choral literature, and leads the Concert Choir, Statesmen, and University Choral Union.

Dr. Crow is a graduate the University of Minnesota where he earned the degree Doctor of Musical Arts in Conducting, including studies with choral, orchestral, and wind ensembles. Following studies at Temple University, where he earned the degree Master of Music in Choral Conducting in studies with Alan Harler, Dr. Crow taught at Rutgers University in Camden, New Jersey.

As an undergraduate at The Ohio State University, Dr. Crow toured widely with the renowned Men's Glee Club under the direction of James Gallagher and performed frequently with Robert Shaw, seminal influences for a life in choral music. Following his 1995 graduation as Bachelor of Arts in Music summa cum laude, he studied voice and completed an apprenticeship at The Cleveland Institute of Music in piano technology.

In 2007, Dr. Crow co-founded the University of Minnesota’s Summer Choir. In the summer of 2008, he traveled to Austria on a research fellowship to explore church architecture relating to composer Anton Bruckner, whose Mass in E-minor served as the topic of his doctoral dissertation. In fact, the dissertation used the Mass as a platform to explore intertextuality between music and other disciplines with architecture at the fore.

Dr. Crow is also an experienced singer, orchestral conductor, piano technician, and dedicated church musician, currently Director of Music at High Street United Methodist Church in Muncie, Indiana. He has previously served prominent churches in Philadelphia and Minneapolis. As a singer, he performed regularly with Apollo’s Fire, Cleveland’s professional baroque ensemble during his tenure there.

In February 2010, Dr. Crow presented an interest session for the American Choral Directors Association, Central Division. He has written several articles for the series Teaching Music through Performance in Choir from GIA Publications. He is passionate about male-voice ensembles and his writing and research interests include the intersection of music with other disciplines.
