From the Telegraph Herald May 31, 2018:
The Dubuque Community String Orchestra has appointed a new conductor.
Rebecca Payne (now Geyssens), who teaches violin and viola at the Northeast Iowa School of Music, will pick up the baton from Tracey Rush, who recently retired as founder and conductor of the ensemble after 20 years.
Rebecca is a graduate of the University of Northern Iowa, with a bachelor’s degree in instrumental music education. She is a member of Clarke University Strings and performs viola and violin in several community ensembles. Payne (now Geyssens) also performs in pit orchestras and has experience with multiple musicals and operas.
She serves as the director of orchestras at East High School and teaches at the No Strings Attached beginner program at Kitrell Elementary, both in Waterloo, Iowa.
