CRRVA Welcomes Anthony Burnham! A note from outgoing Artistic Director, Anamarie Diaz

I have had the honor of artistically directing Classical Revolution RVA for just over 2 years. In that time I have had the privilege of working with so many of you through Classical Incarnations or other events we have planned. Not to mention meeting and working with so many of our community partners. Getting involved in this organization has been a goal of mine since I was in college and I have been so grateful for these past 2 years.

As with many things in life, a change of season (or year) brings about other personal changes and endeavors. So, I will be stepping down as Artistic Director.

With that being said, I would like to introduce our interim Artistic Director Anthony Burnham!

Anthony is an active composer, arranger, and educator based in Richmond, Virginia. Recently transplanted from Nebraska, Anthony studied music at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln and earned his BM (Performance) and MM (Composition) degrees before beginning a ten-year music-teaching career in higher education.

Anthony has worked with performers at every level and has taught and performed with groups that have toured the United States and Europe. He has written and arranged music for many ensembles across the country and has been commissioned by high schools and professional ensembles alike.

Anthony will be taking over as the Classical Incarnations lead as well as our other monthly events. Classical Revolution is so lucky to have him! You can get to know Anthony at our February Incarnations happening on Sunday, 2/18 at Brambly Park.

Thank you to each and every one of you for making the past 2 years an absolute blast!

Take care,

Anamarie Diaz
