MICHELLE ADAM
Solo Flautist |
Our featured soloist in this concert is a native
of Kerrville and a Tivy High School graduate. Michelle
Adam became interested in music through her
grandmother’s influence playing piano from age five.
Michelle began flute study in the sixth grade and
decided during her middle school years that she wanted
to have a career in music. She continued her studies
after high school and graduated with confidence in her
playing ability and a music degree from the University
of Texas at San Antonio.
Following her university study, Michelle taught at a
middle school in San Antonio and later became the band
director at Comfort Middle School. During her career in
Comfort, her middle school band was named a finalist in
the state-wide Honor Band competition sponsored by the
Texas Music Educators Association.

During and since her college years, Michelle has soloed
with several symphony orchestras. She has been the
principal flautist with the Symphony of the Hills since
2003 and first soloed with the orchestra several years
ago.
Michelle is married to Jason Adam, former band director
at Tivy High School. This past summer they moved to New
Braunfels where Jason is band director at Canyon High
School. Michelle now has a flourishing studio of flute
students, both in Kerrville and New Braunfels. |
