Isabelle Demers, head of the organ department at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, was chosen by the provost as the year’s “Outstanding Tenure-Track Professor Recognized for Scholarship and Creative Activity.” She was nominated by her music school colleagues.
A native of Québec, Demers began piano and organ study at the Montréal Conservatory of Music, went on to study for a year in Paris at the École Normale de Paris-Alfred Cortot, and received her doctoral degree from the Juilliard School in New York City, where she won the prize for best dissertation in her graduating class.
Demers has been featured at both AGO and RCCO national conventions, and maintains an active performance schedule across the United States under the representation of Phillip Truckenbrod Concert Artists.
