Before his tenure at Lawrence, Stull was Associate Director of Admissions=20

A tubist, he has performed with the American Brass Quintet, the Milwaukee=20
Ballet, the Bravo Colorado Music Festival, and the Aspen Festival=20

numerous occasions, has been a competition judge for Midwest Young Artists=20
and for Juilliard's pre-college division, and has appeared on National=20
Public Radio's Performance Today.

A native of Cincinnati, Ohio, Stull studied tuba with Ronald Bishop at the=20

and honored to undertake the leadership of the Oberlin Conservatory of=20
Music and I look forward to continuing a legacy of excellence that will=20
grow and flourish in the coming years. This is an outstanding community of=20
performing artists and scholars, and I am privileged to be a part of it."

The Oberlin Conservatory of Music, founded in 1865 and situated within the=20
intellectual vitality of Oberlin College since 1867, is the oldest=20
continuously operating conservatory in the United States. It is renowned=20
internationally as a professional music school of the highest caliber.

Primarily an undergraduate conservatory of music, Oberlin provides its 585=20

85 artist-teachers and scholars. Through hundreds of courses in classical=20
and jazz performance, vocal studies, music history and theory, music=20
education, composition and TIMARA (Technology in Music and the Related=20
Arts), Oberlin has prepared many of the music world's notable luminaries=20
for successful careers in all walks of the profession. Oberlin's=20
collaborations with The Cleveland Orchestra support a core element of=20
Oberlin's mission: that professional training and contact with one of the=20
world's great orchestras is seminal to a formal music education.
