RICK MARSHALL
CHORUS DIRECTOR
2006 TO PRESENT
Rick Marshall, director, comes from within the Chorus ranks - a first in the history of the Chorus.
Rick is in his fourth year with the Germantown Chorus, but has just completed the second season as its director.
He has performed as a baritone soloist in various works - Dubois' The Seven Last Words of Christ, Handel's Messiah, and leading roles in My Fair Lady, South Pacific and the operetta comedy, HMS Pinafore.
He has also been a soloist and member of choral groups including the Memphis Symphony Chorus, the Tennessee Baptist Men's Chorale and the American Choral Directors Association.
The strong call of music moved Rick from his career in architecture in 1978 to receive a degree in voice and choral conducting from the School of Music at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas.
Since then he has served five churches in Texas and Tennessee directing numerous choral groups of all ages, instrumental ensembles, orchestras and handbell choirs.
In the past 25 years his choral and hand bell choirs received superior ratings by his peers in state and regional festivals.
His peers also selected him to direct a local men's choral group comprised of Baptist music directors.
Rick has also directed and produced musical pageantry, dinner theaters and choir tours in the U. S. and South America.
