orchestras, chamber concerts and solo recitals. In addition to her solo

Dr.

many of the world's
leading conductors, including Barenboim, Solti, Ozawa, Levine, Chailly, Boulez
and Eschenbach.
During
Dr. Shofher's summer stints with the CSO
at Ravinia, she has rehearsed with violinists Miriam
Freed and Gil Shaham, and, most recently, with bass-baritone Bryn Terfel.
Earlier
this year Dr. Shother made her opera conducting debut, conducting Ralph Vaughan
Williams' Riders to the Sea and
the world-premier of Philip Seward's Spreading the News. Her other conducting experience includes both
classical and musical theater.
Dr. Shofher lives in Arlington Heights where she
spends her spare time as a synagogue organist, vocal coach, bicyclist, and some-times
gardener.
