February 13, 2025 at 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm
Join us for two performances by composer, recording artist, conductor, and performer Rodney Lamar Page. Page has a unique, energetic style ranging from classical to pop music. For more than 20 years, he has touched countless audiences with his passion and artistic drive for music.
Southfield, Michigan native Page began studying violin at age 10. Upon high school graduation, he was awarded a music scholarship to Michigan State University, where he subsequently earned both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in music education. Throughout his secondary school and collegiate career, Rodney also studied piano, developing into an accomplished pianist.
As a violinist, Mr. Page has performed in the Midland Symphony Orchestra (7 years), Michigan State University Symphony Orchestra (4 years), Livingston Symphony Orchestra (1 year), and as a 2nd violinist in the South Shore Symphony Orchestra in China.
A passionate teacher who inspires students to appreciate all forms of music, Page has been involved in music education for over 20 years. In addition to the orchestras he directed in the St. Johns and East Lansing (Michigan) public school systems, Rodney engaged teenage musicians at the Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp in Michigan as the Symphony Orchestra conductor and violin instructor over 4 summers. During his college career, he founded and directed a summer string camp for middle and high school students in Southfield. Rodney cultivates talent in aspiring musicians and believes children’s musical experiences in school impact the future of music. As a national conductor and clinician, Mr. Page has guest-conducted student orchestras throughout the United States.
